    1 Preheat oven to 200°C and line a large tray with baking paper.

    2 To prepare lentils, heat oil in a medium-sized saucepan over a medium heat. Cook onion and celery for 5 minutes, stirring, until softened. Add garlic and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until fragrant.

    3 Add bay leaf, lentils and 250ml water. Bring to the boil, then reduce heat to low. Partially cover and simmer for 30 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until lentils are tender, adding extra water if lentils become too dry. Season with freshly ground black pepper.

    4 Meanwhile, place tomatoes and fish on prepared tray. Roast in preheated oven for 12-15 minutes, or until fish is cooked through and tomatoes are wilted.

    5 To serve, divide lentils among serving plates, top with a fish fillet, some roasted tomatoes and a lemon wedge with a side of salad dressed with vinaigrette.
