Finishing and serving
Equipment
- Oven
- Large mixing bowl
- Rimmed baking tray or 23 x 33 cm pan
- Paper towels
Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 220°C/390°F (200°C fan-forced).
Step 2: Toss the potatoes with the oil, salt and pepper in a large mixing bowl. Spread them on a rimmed baking tray at least 2 cm high, or in a 23 x 33 cm pan. Roast for 20 minutes.
Step 3: Meanwhile, mix all the sauce ingredients together in the potato bowl; there is no need to clean it first. Add the mixture to the tray and toss with the potatoes. Return the tray to the oven for 10 minutes.

Tip: The mixture may look dry before baking; it becomes saucy as it cooks.
Step 4: Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Sprinkle both sides with the salt and pepper.
Step 5: Place the fish on top of the puttanesca sauce and drizzle all over with 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil. Bake for 15 minutes, or until just cooked through and the fish flakes easily.
Step 6: Remove the tray from the oven. Drizzle with a little more olive oil and scatter the basil and reserved fennel fronds over the top. Serve with warm crusty bread.
Notes
If you only have fine table salt, use half the listed salt quantities. Leftovers keep in the refrigerator for up to 3 days; this dish is not suitable for freezing.
You can use any firm white fish fillets about 2.5–3 cm thick. If using frozen fish, thaw it and pat away excess water before cooking.
If you prefer not to use anchovies, substitute 1 teaspoon fish sauce or 1/4 teaspoon heaped extra cooking or kosher salt.
