| Combining pine nuts, breadcrumbs and currants is a Sicilian influence. This sweet and crunchy mix is really delicious with fish, so it will go perfectly with the spiced fish recipe that follows. |
Method |
SautŽ the onion in the olive oil in a large heavy-based frying pan until soft. Increase the heat and add the garlic, courgettes and breadcrumbs. Stir-fry until courgettes and crumbs are lightly browned. Add the remaining ingredients and toss well. Serve immediately. Serves 4.
