Steps

30 mins

1

Slice the red onion and garlic cloves, then add to an oven dish with the cherry tomatoes and drizzle with 1/2 tbsp olive oil. Put in the oven at 200C for 20 mins
2

Cut your cod loin into two nice chunks and set to one side and carefully open the Parma ham.
3

Next lay out 3 slices of the ham on a chopping board, and spread a dollop of the green pesto in the middle. Place one of the cod loin chunks on top of that, then top it with a bit more pesto as shown in the photos.
4

Now the fun part, we’re going to wrap these up like presents working anti-clockwise from the top as shown here
5

Now do the same with the other piece of cod and you should end up with two nicely wrapped parcels. Oil a baking tray and put them in the oven for 20 minutes
6

Plate up the vegetables and slice the cod parcels in two and serve with fresh ground pepper to taste!
