Directions
| Step 1 | Pre-heat oven to 180C/Gas mark 4. |
| Step 2 | Cut a large piece of tinfoil and spoon the Moroccan vegetables into the centre. Sit the cod on top and season with salt and pepper. Seal the foil parcel by gathering all of the edges together and crimping, sit the parcel on an oven tray and cook for 30 to 35 minutes, or until the fish is cooked and opaque, and the vegetables are steaming hot. |
| Step 3 | Serve immediately with fresh lemon wedge and some parsley scattered over the fish. |
| Step 4 | Be careful when opening the parcel that the steam doesn't burn you. |
