Method
- Heat the oven to 200C, Gas 6. On the hob heat a casserole dish with half the oil. Add the onion and cook for 5 mins until softened.
- Add the lentils, passatas and stock cube with 200ml just-boiled water. Bring to the boil and mix until the stock cube dissolves. Remove from the heat and mix in the chorizo. Scatter the cauliflower and potatoes on top. Cover with the lid and place into the oven for 30 mins.
- Make two spaces in the mixture and nestle the fish in. Drizzle over the remaining oil and season with sea salt. Cook for a further 10 mins with the lid off.
Top tips for making haddock and lentil one-pot:
- If using thinner pieces of fish reduce the cooking time.
- If you have time, generously salt the fish the day before then wash the salt off before cooking. This helps to bring out the flavour in the fish and also makes the texture of the fish firmer by reducing the moisture.
- To make this recipe without meat, substitute the chorizo for 2tsp of paprika
