Yields4 Servings

4 sea bream fillets

250 g small green courgettes

60 g white bread without crusts

10 rosemary leaves

1 tsp thyme leaves

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

3 tbsp olive oil

20 g parmesan cheese, grated

For the ratatouille

100 g white onions

1 clove garlic

200 g red peppers

150 g aubergines

180 g yellow or green courgettes

250 g tomatoes

4 tbsp olive oil

100 ml red wine

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

1 tbsp each thyme, rosemary and parsley

To make the ratatouille, peel and chop the onions and garlic, halve and deseed the peppers, remove the fibres and cut into 1 cm diamond-shaped pieces; trim the aubergines and the courgettes and dice them into 5mm cubes; scald, skin, quarter and deseed the tomatoes and dice the flesh

Heat the olive oil in a pan and sweat the onion and the garlic until soft; add the peppers and the diced aubergine and cook over a low heat for a further 5 minutes; put in the courgettes and the tomatoes followed by the red wine; season the vegetables with salt and pepper, add the fresh herbs and leave to simmer for a further 5 minutes

Trim the courgettes and cut them diagonally into 15mm thick slices; heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and quickly fry the fish fillets in this, on the skin side only

Put the bread, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper through a food processor

Divide the ratatouille onto 4 individual ovenproof dishes and lay the fish fillets, skin side up, on top; cover the fish with diagonal rows of courgette slices and pile the breadcrumb mixture evenly on top; top with the parmesan cheese and drizzle with the remaining olive oil and bake in a preheated oven at 220C/Gas 8 for 6 minutes
