Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 halibut fillets 180g each
  • 150 g natural yoghurt
  • 1 tbsp tandoori spice mix
  • 1 tsp ground turmeric
  • 2 garlic cloves crushed
  • 1 tsp grated fresh ginger
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Salt to taste
  • Fresh coriander to garnish
  • Lemon wedges to serve

Method
 

  1. Combine yoghurt, spices, garlic, ginger and lemon juice.
  2. Coat halibut in marinade, chill 1–4 hours.
  3. Heat oil in a very hot pan.
  4. Scrape off excess marinade, sear 3–4 minutes per side.
  5. Rest 1–2 minutes.
  6. Garnish with coriander, serve with lemon wedges.

Notes

Marinate for at least an hour for the spices to properly penetrate.
Scrape off excess marinade before searing to avoid burning.
Uncooked marinated fish freezes well for up to 2 months.
Works equally well with cod, haddock or monkfish.
