Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the halved baby potatoes on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, season, and spread out in a single layer. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes. Place the baby marrow chunks in a bowl with a drizzle of oil and some seasoning. Toss to coat and set aside for step 4.
LEMONY BASTING
Halve the partially zested Lemon and set the unzested half aside for another meal. Slice off 2 circles for the basa parcel and cut the rest into wedges. Place the grated garlic, the Seafood Rub, and three-quarters of the chopped dill in a bowl. Mix with 1 tbsp of oil until combined. Add the juice of 1 lemon wedge and some lemon zest to taste. Mix well to combine and set aside.
PREP THE BASA
Pat the basa dry with paper towel and season lightly. Place in the centre of a piece of tinfoil (large enough to wrap around the whole fillet). Smear with the basting and top with the Lemon circles. Close up tightly to seal it in and place on a baking tray.

When the potatoes reach the halfway mark, remove from the oven and give a shift. Scatter over the dressed baby marrow and drizzle over the balsamic vinegar. Return to the oven for the remaining roasting time until the baby marrow is cooked through and the potatoes are crispy. Pop the fish in the oven and bake for 6-8 minutes until soft and flakey.

FRESH & FLAVOURFUL
