Method

  1. Line a baking tray with foil. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Place the basa fillets onto the lined baking tray and top with half of the spring onions and a little of the chopped coriander. Cook in the oven for 10 mins until cooked through and starting to turn golden.
  2. Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil and cook the pasta for 7-9 mins until cooked through, adding the sweetcorn for the last 4 mins. Drain.
  3. Heat the leftover chowder in a large pan, season and add the cooked pasta, sweetcorn, tomatoes and ¾ of the coriander. Gently stir to coat, then divide between 4 plates. Flake over the basa fillets, then scatter over the remaining spring onions and coriander.
