Ingredients
- For the ratatouille:

- 1 garlic clove, crushed with a garlic press
- 1 summer squash, diced very small
- 1 red bell pepper, diced very small
- 1 eggplant, diced very small
- 3 tomatoes, diced very small
- Small handful fresh tarragon, chopped
- Handful fresh basil leaves, plus extra to garnish

- Freshly ground black pepper
- Drizzle olive oil
- Squeeze lemon juice (optional)
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large, non-stick pan over medium heat and add the garlic. Cook until softened.
- Add the vegetables, tarragon, a few torn basil leaves and the ketchup and cook over a slightly higher heat for 15 minutes until the vegetables are tender. Season with salt and pepper, then stir in the sour cream to warm through. Set aside to keep warm.
- Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 425°F (200°C) and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Place the fish fillets on the tray and season with salt and pepper. Brush on a little olive oil. Bake for no longer than 12 minutes.
- Serve the creamy ratatouille with the fish fillets on top and sprinkle on more basil. If you like, squeeze a little lemon juice over the fish.
