Olive oil

1 tbs

Fennel bulb(s)

6 baby, thinly sliced

Cherry tomato

400 g, (mixed), halved

Fresh thyme

2 tbs, (lemon)

1 tbs

Blue eye trevalla, raw

600 g, (buy 4x 150g), blue-eye trevalla

Lemon(s)

1 medium, cut into wedges to serve

Instructions

  1. Heat half the oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Cook fennel, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until golden and tender. Add tomatoes and half the thyme. Cook for 3 minutes or until tomatoes have softened. Stir in capers and season with freshly ground black pepper. Transfer to a bowl. Cover to keep warm.
