Method

Put a squirt of spray oil and the fennel into a medium pan on a low-medium heat and gently cook until tender.
Add the paprika, tomato passata and vegetable stock. Cook over a high heat for 5 mins, until thickened.
Add the cod and fresh king prawns, stir well to coat in the sauce and cook for a further 5 mins, until both are just cooked through. Season to taste and add lemon zest and juice.
Meanwhile, cook the green beans in boiling water for 3-4 mins, until just tender. Whizz the cauliflower in a food processor.
Toss the cauli ‘couscous’ with a squeeze of lemon juice and serve with the fish stew and beans, scattered with fresh parsley.
