Ingredients
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil or ghee
- 1 fat garlic clove, finely grated until it resembles a paste
- 4 skinless sustainable white fish fillets, about 140g each
- 5 tbsp lime juice
For the crust
- 100g cashews
- 4 mild red chillies
- 6 fat garlic cloves, peeled
- thumb-tip-size piece fresh root ginger, roughly chopped
- 1 tbsp cumin powder
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil or ghee
Method
- STEP 1
Rub the oil and garlic paste over the fish with 2 tbsp of the lime juice. Season, then marinate for 20-30 mins.
- STEP 2
Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Whizz together the crust ingredients and the remaining lime juice to make a rough paste. Pat the fish fillets dry with some kitchen paper, then press a quarter of the crust onto each fillet. Lift onto an oiled baking tray, then roast for 12-15 mins until cooked through.
