Cod With Tomato And Thyme - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 3/4 lbs medium-sized potatoes, scrubbed
1 tbsp sunflower oil
1 None onion, peeled and chopped
1 None garlic clove, peeled and chopped
1 None celery stalk, chopped
1 1/3 lb tomato, quartered, deseeded and diced
1/2 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp fresh thyme leaves, plus extra sprigs to garnish
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
3 tbsp butter
4 None cod fillets (each about 5 oz)

Preparation

Cook the whole potatoes in a pot of boiling water for about 20 mins. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a frying pan and fry the onion, garlic and celery over a medium heat for 5 mins. Add the tomatoes, sugar, thyme and Worcestershire sauce to the pan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer for 10 mins. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Heat the butter in a separate frying pan. Drain the potatoes then peel and dice. Add to the pan and fry for 10-15 mins, turning frequently until pale golden. Push the potatoes to the edges of the pan and add the cod fillets. Cover and cook over a gentle heat for about 10 mins until the fish flakes easily. Season to taste.
Serve the cod and potatoes on the tomato sauce, garnished with thyme sprigs.
