    This tastes perfectly fine. Potatoes, tomatoes and chorizo in a roasting tin alongside fish is a common mix. I was intrigued by the sherry- unfortunately you can't really taste it against the other strong flavours. The crumb is great. Make sure the breadcrumbs aren't too fresh so they crisp up well.

    This was delicious! Very easy, but it did take a bit of time to cut, cook, roast, and bake everything. I was lucky to have fresh breadcrumbs in the freezer. We made very few changes -- extra Castelvetrano olives and I wish I had added even more. Very simple to pick them out for people who aren't olive lovers. We aren't crazy about sherry on its own, but we used Amontillado in this recipe as suggested and it was perfect.

    Very tasty. However, my crumb topping did not get crispy. I also need to cut my chorizo slices thicker next time. Used dry Masala for the Amontillado Sherry.

    This was delicious! As suggested by Nigella, I substituted Marsala Secco for the sherry. I served with a side of Swiss Chard.

    This is as delicious as it sounds. I used Italian sausage because my partner does not like chorizo, and I added in some summer squash. The seasoned, buttery bread crumbs are so great with cod, and the veggies were melting and delicious with pops of tomato and olives. The only flavor I didn’t love was the sherry. Maybe because mine was so old it was just too syrupy and cloying. I’ll skip it next time. A definite keeper.

    Great dish that comes together very easily. Put the veg in to start cooking while you make the bread crumb topping for the fish, then cook everything together for a bit and it's dinner! I used halibut as it's what I had on hand.

    Finally got around to this, and even my cod-hating family loved it. I almost doubled - maybe 1 1/2 next time instead. But as everyone says, this is absolutely delicious. That crunchy top is so good.

    Really delicious. A lovely combination of flavours and textures. My potatoes took far longer than the listed time but that may be because I used baby roasters rather than baby new potatoes. I didn't have any sherry so used Shaoxing rice wine instead, but cut back to a couple of tablespoons to be safe. A definite repeat.

    Another vote for this recipe - really nice.

    We loved this! Such bold delicious flavors.

  • KarinaFrancis on May 05, 2020

    Oh wow we loved this dish!! Every part is delicious! I added red onion to the veg in place of olives (because we have a few and the silver fox doesn’t like olives). The potatoes took closer to 45 mins before I added the fish, but that happens frequently in my oven. I’ll be repeating this one for sure!

    Made this with skrei as it is in season. So simple and so delicious!

    A fantastic, tasty, easy one pot meal. I didn't add the olives as hubby and kids are not fans and it was still delicious.

    I agree with Jane - more olives! And I followed her lead and kept the quantity of tomatoes while halving the rest of the ingredients for 2 people. It was very nice! Although I have come to the conclusion that cherry tomatoes on the vine are a bit of a waste of time.

  • Jane on November 07, 2019

    This was fantastic. My photo doesn’t look impressive as my fish covers most of the veg but it tasted great. I added more olives than she said, because I love olives. Next time I would add more tomatoes as they seemed a bit sparse.
