Heat two tablespoons oil in a large frying pan, add one finely minced green pepper, six small, sound, minced shallots and cook for two minutes, lightly stirring meanwhile; then add half teaspoon chopped parsley and half teaspoon chopped chives. Lay the fish on top; season with a teaspoon salt and a saltspoon Spanish saffron; pour in one gill tomato sauce, one gill cream and six heads sliced canned mushrooms. Cover the pan and boil for two minutes, then place the pan in the oven to bake for twenty minutes. Remove, dress the fish on a hot dish, pour all the contents of the pan over the fish and serve.
