From Giorgio Locatelli's wonderful (and heafty) cookbook, a great fish dish that goes well with red wine. Cod on a bed of lentils and a parsley sauce to add some extra depth. The lentils are simmered in veggie stock with herbs (garden-grown sage and rosemary, and some store-bought bay leaves), pancetta, onion, carrot, leak and celery. The cod is simply cooked with some light oil in a non-stick skillet and finished with butter. The lentils are supposed to mimic a risotto in a way, providing a nice bed to set the lentils into without being too soupy. That puddle you see around the edge is a bit of the butter sauce from the pan I cooked the fish in. I was a little disappointed with having so much come out, but that may have been from having a tad too much vegetable oil in the skillet to start.
