Preheat the oven to 200C/ Fan
180C/ Gas 6. Put the potatoes into a roasting pan or
gratin dish, then throw in the onion and scatter over the
herbs.Season and pour over the olive oil. Spoon over the
lemon juice then add enough water to barely cover the potatoes.
-
Cook the potatoes uncovered
for 45 mins, then turn them over and bake for a further 25
mins.
-
Towards the end of this time,
lay your slice of cod, skin side down, in a buttered
gratin dish or put the fish straight on top of the
potatoes. Baste the fish with the potato liquid or, if you
have put them in a separate dish, dribble a thin layer of
oil over the surface.
-
Bake tehe fish and potatoes
together for 15 mins. Test the fish with a knife point or
skewer: if it goes right through with no resistance, the
fish is cooked. If not, return to the oven and check
again after 5 mins.
-
Slice the fish and serve with
the now golden potatoes, together with lots of lemony
juices.
