- Chop up the fish into bite sized pieces and fry in your pan with the olive oil until it is brown on both sides. Then put the fish to one side.
- In your pan add the onions, fresh tomato, tomato puree and fry until it is brown.

I find it tastes best if the fish is in tiny pieces and the fish then balances really well off the chilli.
