Baked Basa Fillet & Roasted Vegetables

As I follow a strict diet and i’m eating fish again I still try to stick to my rule of not to much fat. So I find baking fish is a great way to ensure that it’s healthy and fit’s into my dietary requirements. I would say that eating lots of vegetables with skins on and greens can cause blockages so you can always peel the veggies before you roast them and go for a green veggie or cauliflower, carrots anything that is easy for you to digest. Again with IBD and a stoma it is all about trying certain foods to see what suits you as an individual.

Ingredients

  • Basa fillets (I bought these frozen from Waitrose I am all for fresh fish however this a fantastic alternative for a mid week meal without a trip to the fish mongers)
  • Carrots peeled and sliced
  • Courgette sliced
  • New Potatoes skin on or off whatever suits you ( Cleaned & cut in half)
  • Sweet potatoes can be used as an alternative to new potatoes (Peeled & cut into chunks)
  • 2 Romano Peppers chopped into quarters
  • Red Onion peeled & cut into quarters
  • Garlic Salt
  • Pepper
  • Olive oil
  • Chilli flakes
  • 2 Teaspoons of Dairy free butter normal butter if you aren’t dairy free
  • Fresh parsley

Method

The method is really straight forward add olive oil your garlic salt & pepper. Roast your potatoes & carrots for twenty minutes.

In the meantime prepare your fish fillets, place your fish on tin foil add butter some garlic salt & chilli flakes & some chopped parsley & black pepper. Wrap your fish in the foil into loose parcels. Ready for baking.

After twenty minutes remove the potatoes & carrots from the oven then add your courgettes, Romano peppers & red onion to your roasting dish return to the oven & cook for a further fifteen minutes.

At this point you need to add your prepared fish fillets in to bake for fifteen minutes remove & serve on top of your roasted vegetables.

Enjoy!
