SHAKSHUKA SAUCE
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic, the tomato paste, and the Shakshuka spice. Fry until fragrant, 2-3 minutes (shifting occasionally). Mix in the tomato passata and 150ml of water. Simmer until reduced and thickened, 12-15 minutes. Add a sweetener and seasoning.
POACHING AWAY
Once the sauce is simmering, submerge the hake pieces in the sauce. Pop on the lid and leave to poach until cooked through, 4-5 minutes. When the fish is cooked, add the drained cannellini beans. Mix until warmed through, 1-2 minutes.
POPPADOMS
Place a clean pan over medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. When hot, shallow fry the poppadoms one at a time, about 30 seconds per side. As soon as the poppadom starts to curl, use tongs to flip it over. Keep flipping until golden and puffed up.
IT’S READY
Dish up a generous helping of the hake shakshuka. Garnish with the chopped coriander. Serve the crispy poppadoms on the side for dunking. Well done, Chef!
