Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Toss sweet potatoes, garlic, and shallot with 2 tablespoons oil. Spread evenly on a rimmed baking sheet and season with salt and pepper. Roast until tender, 25 to 30 minutes.

Drizzle mixture over fish and vegetables; serve.
SEA BASS WITH SPINACH
Steps:
- 1. Make your sauce and marinade by combining the five ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 2 minutes. Cool uncovered, then strain out the ginger and garlic. 2. Put your sea bass fillets in a storage bag or a covered container with 2 cups of the marinade. Let the fish have a nice soak in the marinade for 5 to 6 hours in the fridge. If the sauce doesn't completely cover the fish, be sure to turn the fillets a couple hours in so that all sides get marinated. 3. When you are ready to prepare the fish, preheat your oven to 425 degrees. 4. Arrange the fillets on a foil-covered cooking sheet. Bake the fish for 22 minutes or until the edges of the fillets are starting to turn brown. Crank the oven up to a high broil and broil fish for 2 to 4 minutes or until you get some dark patches around the edge of the fillets. Just don't let them burn. 5. As your fish is baking, heat up a wok or large skillet with one tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the spinach, garlic, and baby sweet corn, and a dash of salt and pepper to the pan. Saute the veggies just until the spinach is wilted, then arrange half of the spinach and corn on each of two plates. 6. When the sea bass is done broiling, use a spatula to carefully lay each fillet on the bed of spinach and baby corn. Split the remaining sauce and pour it over each of the fillets before serving.

Steps:
- Heat the grill to high. Put the peppers, skin side up, on a baking tray, then pop them under the hot grill for about 10 mins until the skins blister and blacken. Drop them into a bowl, cover with some cling film and leave until cool enough to handle. Peel away and discard the skins, then roughly chop the peppers.
- Heat the oil over a low-ish heat in a sturdy roasting tin or in a shallow pan that has a lid and is large enough to fit both fish. Throw in the shallots and garlic and sweat briefly until soft. Stir in the tomatoes, peppers, capers, olives and half the basil leaves, then sweat for a few mins until the tomatoes soften. Pour in the wine and tomato juice. Stir and gently simmer for 10-15 mins, adding a splash of water if the sauce becomes a bit dry.
- While the sauce is simmering, slash each side of the fish a few times. When the sauce is ready lay the fish on top, season if you want to and cover with a lid (cover with foil if you are using a roasting tray). Leave to cook on a low heat for 12-15 mins until the flesh feels firm when pressed.
- While the fish is cooking, melt the butter in a large pan, then fry the spinach until wilted, season if you like and divide the spinach between two serving dishes. Lift the fish carefully from the pan and place on top of the spinach, neatly drizzle some of the sauce round the fish, scatter the remaining basil on top and drizzle everything with extra-virgin olive oil. Serve with some ribbon shaped pasta, like tagliatelle or pappardelle, with the remaining sauce in a bowl or side dish.

Tips:
- Choose the freshest sea bass possible. Look for fish that has bright, clear eyes, and firm, moist flesh. Avoid fish that has a slimy or off smell.
- Score the sea bass before cooking. This will help the fish cook evenly and prevent it from curling up.
- Season the sea bass generously with salt and pepper. You can also add other spices or herbs, such as garlic, thyme, or rosemary.
- Cook the sea bass over medium heat. This will help to prevent the fish from overcooking and becoming dry.
- Serve the sea bass immediately with your favorite sides. Some good options include roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.
