I always like to cook natural food. This is my Nothing Artificial  recipe

Plaice Papillote with Herb crust and home made tomato Salsa. I serve my fish with boiled new potatoes with the skin on and  spinach


4 fillet of plaice
1 clove of garlic ( chopped)
2 tablespoon breadcrumbs
1/2 beaten egg
Juice of 1 lemon
75g of Clover
Salt & pepper
4 tomatoes
2 teaspoon chopped herbs
400g new potatoes
200g fresh spinach

(Serves 4 people)

Method:
1 Cut 8 pieces of foil 30cmx30cm. Brush the foil with melted Clover. Put the plaice fillet in the centre of the foil. sprinkle with chopped garlic, lemon juice,chopped herbs, salt and pepper. Top with a knob of clover. Place another piece of foil over the top , seal the edges to make an envelope to enclose the fish. Repeat with the other 3 fillets. Place the fish envelope on a baking tray and bake in the centre of the oven 180C/ Gas 6 for 10 minutes.
2.  Make the herb crust with bread crumbs, mixed herbs, egg, lemon juice and a teaspoon of clover. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Mix well. Remove the top foil from the fish. Put a spoonful of the herb mix on the fish. Put the fish back in the oven without the top foil. Bake for another 5 minutes till the the crust is golden brown an crusty.
3. Chopped the tomatoes finely for the salsa. Heat a knob of clove in a pan. Add in chopped tomatoes, garlic and chopped herbs. Cook for 2-3 minutes. Season to taste.



 3. Wash the new potato and place in the pan and boil for 15 minutes. Drain and sliced. Cook spinach in water for 1 minutes till soft and tender. Drain.
4. To serve: put the fish with the foil on a warm plate. Add salsa, potatoes and spinach. Dot with Clover. Allow the clover to melt onto the fish and the vegetables. Garnish with a sprig of dill and basil
