Fabulous Fish: Cod out of the Oven with Red Pesto

For the FoodBlogSwap, I made a red pesto, and of course we had to use that in a dish :) We choose not to make a pasta dish with it, which would be the obvious choice. But instead we choose for an oven dish with cod. The original recipe if from Aranka's Kookblog. But we moderated it a bit because we added veggies as well.

Cod out of the Oven with Red Pesto: (serves 2)
- 300 gr cod, in chunks
- 50 gr home made red pesto
- 4 spring onions, in rings
- 1 courgette, in pieces
- 100 gr mozzarella, in cubes
- black pepper
- oregano

Pre heat the oven to 180 degrees. Place the cod on the bottom of an oven dish. Stir in red pesto, oregano, black pepper, courgette and spring onion. Place in the oven for 10 minutes. After that add in the mozzarella and place it back for another 5 minutes.

We served it along side a toastie with mascarpone and more red pesto, but it will also be great with potatoes and more veggies.
