First dip the fish pieces in flour. Fry in 2-3 tbsp olive oil, put them aside.

Meanwhile saute the onion with 2-3 tbsp live oil until the colour turns to light brown. Place the fish in an oven proof dish. Then mix the rest of the ingredients and pour all over fish.

Preheat the oven to 400F (200 C) and bake for about 40 minutes. Discard the Bay leaf. Serve the dish while it is still hot or at room temperature.
