Ingredients

• 500 gr Hoki fish filet

• 4 diced potatoes

• 400gr frozen peas

• Bunch of coriander

• 5 cloves of garlic

• 1 red capsicum

• 1 lemon

• 1 can of diced tomatoes

Method

1. Chop the Hoki fish filet into very small pieces until it gets a minced texture.

2. Add finely chopped coriander, 3/4 of the minced garlic mixed with a pinch of salt, finely chopped red capsicum, lemon juice, little bit of the canned tomatoes, and fish spice mix. You can add harissa as well to make it a bit more spicy. Mix well, so that all ingredients are evenly distributed and combined with the fish. Then shape pieces of the mix into balls.

3. Head up 2 tbsp of olive oil in a tagine or big sauce pan. Add 2 tsp of fish spice mix, the can of tomatoes, the rest of the garlic mixed with salt, lemon zest, and a little bit of water. Then add carrot slices and green capsicum and leave to cook for a little.

4. After a while, add the fishballs, frozen peas, potatoes, and a few olives. Close the tagine or sauce pan with a lit and let simmer for a while until all ingredients are cooked.

5. Serve with bread and enjoy!
