Fabulous fish stew

It's worth trying to get hold of saffron for this one – it's available from most delis and good supermarkets. It's not cheap, but bear in mind you won't need much at all to spice up a dish. Make sure you use a wide pan so all the fish is in contact with the tomatoey broth. If you haven't got one, try using a high-sided roasting tray instead, with another tray as a lid.
