- 3 cloves garlic, peeled & finely sliced
- 150mL water
- 2 tsp apple-cider vinegar
- 500g chopped fresh or BPA-free tinned tomatoes
- 1 tbsp ground cumin

Method
- Heat olive oil in saucepan on medium heat. Add onion and garlic and fry for 2–3 minutes or until lightly golden.
- Pour in water and apple-cider vinegar to soften onion, then add tomatoes and cook on high to reduce for 2–3 minutes.
- Stir through cumin, paprika and chilli.
- Add fish pieces, cover and cook for 5–6 minutes or until fish is well cooked through, turning once throughout so fish cooks evenly but doesn’t break.
- Serve sprinkled with fresh parsley and coriander and your choice of sides.
