1 tablespoon Chives, chopped

1/2 teaspoon salt

4 tablespoons olive oil

2 teaspoons dried rosemary

2 teaspoons dried thyme

2 pinch salt

2 pinch ground black pepper

3 tablespoons yellow corn flour (not corn starch). or whole grain

1 tablespoon lemon juice

Preparation

Wash the zucchini and cut it to a little more than byte size pieces – the zucchini will shrink in the process of cooking. Peel the potatoes and cut them the same size as zucchini.

Put the potatoes in a cooking pot and pour in water and season with salt. The water should just cover the potatoes. Cook for about 20 minutes.

Take a kitchen towel and wipe the moist off of the fish filet. Put the filet on a plate and season on one side with dry herbs, salt and pepper. If you want it a little spicy you can sprinkle some chili powder on. Take the corn flour and sprinkle on. Gently rub the herbs, spices and corn flour in to the fish. Repeat the other side and set aside to marinate.

Take a large roasting pan, put it on medium high heat and pour in the olive oil. When the oil is hot put in your filets and fry them for about 5 minutes each side.

Take a large roasting pan, put it on high heat and pour in the olive oil. When the oil is hot enough add the zucchini and stir fry for about 5 minutes on high heat. Don’t lower the heat, but toss the whole time. A minute before zucchini are done add cooked potatoes, season with salt and pepper and add fresh herbs. Stir fry for another minute.

Put everything on a plate and sprinkle the fish fillet with some lemon juice and serve.
