At the Bermagui fish coop on the far South Coast of NSW,I found this beautiful fish called ‘Morwang’. I had never heard of it and never cooked it.
I decided to use the vegetables from my ‘orto’ and experiment.
It was a great success. The fish was sweet and firm and it let the taste of the vegetables come through.
I am sure you can use any firm fish – snapper, ling or blue eyed cod.
The great thing about this dish is, it is a one pot meal.
