Thanks for this recipe. It took me much longer (about 35 mins) to cook the fish, but it was worth it. I've tried it in the oven, and also in the Varoma. The fish turned out much more tender with the Thermomix! It's excellent served with vegetables (tomatoes, onions and potatoes) baked in extra virgin olive oil.

Thanks very much for the feedback - the recipe is from A Todo Vapor (A Tutto Vapore in Italian) and I just translated it but haven't tried it yet.  Thanks for being a guinea pig.
