Preparation

In a skillet with oil, fry the onion over low heat. Add the leek and, when it gets transparent, the sliced garlic, bay leaf, carrot and thyme. Add the celery and ensure that it does not get burned, then the wine and reduce it.
Put the tomatoes and salt. Continue cooking over low heat until it absorbs the water from the tomatoes and gets jam-like.
Grill the salted fish on a griddle, first on the skin side. Then turn it to finish cooking.
Put the sofrito (stir-fry sauce) on the plate and the fish on top, skin side up, a little oil, salt and micro-mesclun leaves.


With a touch of thyme

The Penedès wine and fresh herbs add flavour to a whitefish dish, which is ideal for the summer months
