Fragrant with fresh herbs and a touch of Pastis, these Roasted Sea Breams à la Marseillaise bring Provençal flavours to a hearty and warming dish. Happy Wednesday!

Ingredients (serves 3):

1 1/2 dozen Garden New Potatoes

1 green Garden Bell Pepper

1 onion

1 Green Onion

5 fluffy sprigs Garden Parsley

half a dozen large leaves Garden Sage 

1 teaspoon fleur de sel or sea salt flakes

1/2 teaspoon freshly cracked black pepper

2 tablespoons olive oil

3 beautiful sea breams (scaled and gutted)

a pinch salt and freshly cracked black pepper

1/4 cup Pastis

a drizzle olive oil

Preheat oven to 200°C/395°F.

Thoroughly rinse and scrub New Potatoes under cold water, then pat them dry. Halve New Potatoes, and add to a large roasting tin.

Halve, seed and dice Bell Pepper. Add to the tin.

Thinly slice half of the onion and white part of the Green Onion, saving green part for later, and add to the tin as well.

Finely chop Garden Parsley and Sage. Add half of the chopped herbs to the tin. Season with fleur de sel and black pepper, and drizzle with olive oil.

Toss well to combine and generously coat in oil and herbs.

Place roasting tin in the middle of the hot oven, and cook, 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, finely chop remaining halve of the onion and add to a medium bowl, along with reserved chopped Parsley and Sage. Give a good stir, to mix.

Season the inside of each sea bream with salt and black pepper, and stuff them with herb and onion mixture.

Place stuffed sea breams onto the vegetables in the roasting tin. Drizzle generously with Pastis and olive oil, and return to the hot oven.

Roast, at 200°C/395°F, for 35 minutes more.

Finely chop green part of the Green Onion.
