Method

Hide images
step 1
Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas mark 6. Arrange the vegetables (1 pack) in a large roasting tin and toss with half the pesto (1 tbsp). Drizzle with a little olive oil. Roast for 20 minutes.
step 2
Meanwhile, rinse the bulgur wheat (120 g). Bring 500ml salted water to the boil and add the bulgur wheat. Stir, cover and simmer over a medium-low heat for 15 minutes.
step 3
Remove the vegetables from the oven and stir in the bulgur wheat, (it will still be holding some of its liquid at this stage) the pine nuts (1 tbsp), the zest and juice of one of the lemons (1), and half of the mint (7.5 g) and basil (7.5 g).
step 4
Make four wells in the mixture and nestle in the fish fillets (4). Spread the remaining pesto (1 tbsp) over each fillet and season with salt and pepper.
step 5
Bake for a further 15 minutes, until the fish is tender.
step 6
While the fish is baking, stir the remaining chopped mint (7.5 g) and basil (7.5 g) through the yogurt (100 g) and scatter the pomegranate seeds (2 tbsp) on top. Season with a little flaky sea salt and drizzle over a tiny bit of olive oil.
step 7
Serve the fish with the herby pomegranate yogurt and the remaining lemon (1), cut into wedges.
step 7 Serve the fish with the herby pomegranate yogurt and the remaining lemon (1), cut into wedges.
