Ingredients

Servings
  • 1.25 lb white fish eg snapper (for milder flavor) or red mullet (for deeper flavor) giving approx 9oz/260g as fillets, whole
  • teaspoon fennel seeds
  • 1 bay leaf small
  • 2 peppercorns
  • cup white wine 150ml
  • 2 cups water 480ml, or a little less

For the sauce

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ¼ onion
  • 2 anchovy fillet
  • 1 clove garlic small
  • 1 cup tomato 240ml, finely chopped, chopped
  • ½ cup fish stock 120ml, use bones to make stock as in instructions
  • 1 tablespoon parsley finely chopped , a small handful
  • 7 oz pasta 200g, I used bucatini but use whatever you prefer

Instructions

  1. Ask your fishmonger to fillet the fish for you but to give you the head and bones. Put the head and bones into a pan along with the fennel seeds, bay leaf, peppercorns, white wine and water. Bring to a boil then reduce to a simmer. Simmer for approx 30min, starting the rest of the steps after approx 15min.
  2. After the stock has been simmering approx 15-20min, warm the oil in a medium skillet/frying pan. Finely chop the onion and slice the anchovies then add them to the pan. Cook for approx 5-10min until the onion is softening and the anchovies have melted away. Add the garlic and cook for another couple minutes before adding the tomatoes and ½ cup stock from the pan.
  3. Cook for another 5min then add the fish fillets and simmer until cooked through, turning after a few minutes.
  4. At the same time, put the remaining stock in a pan with the pasta and top up to cover well with hot water. Bring to a boil and cook until done, as per packet instructions.
  5. Once cooked, add the parsley to the sauce, then mix the pasta into the sauce and serve.
