If you're wondering if this is not just a variation of this, you'd be right. You can't invent new tricks all the time. This is nothing more than the combinatorial approach to cooking which is the proverbial housewife's savior everywhere from Japan to India to the Middle East and the Mediterranean.
The CC will have a lot more to say about this subject but that's for a later post.
Ingredients (serves 2)
1 large cod fillet.
6-8 small roasting potatoes
4-6 sprigs thyme
olive oil
sea salt
black pepper
Recipe
Preheat an oven to 375°F.
Toss the potatoes with olive oil, sea salt and black pepper. Roast them for 15 minutes. Pull them out and toss again carefully to make sure they don't stick to the bottom. Toss springs of thyme all over them. Roast for another 20 minutes.
Meanwhile season the cod fillet by rubbing it with olive oil. Season with sea salt, black pepper and thyme.
Pull the pan out of the oven. Push the potatatoes aside to one side of the pan. Place the cod fillet gently on the other side and roast for 10 more minutes. Don't overcook it.
A quick salad with a nice lemony-vinaigrette pairs really well with this dish. (The salad above has thinly cut radishes added to give it some crunch and textural complexity.)
