Method
- Mix the cumin, coriander, paprika, turmeric and ginger in a large bowl. Add the garlic and lemon zest and finely grate in the onion.
- Mix well and add the sea bream, coating all over with the spice mix. Cover and place in the fridge for at least an hour (or overnight is best).
- Put the couscous, sultanas and lemon juice in a bowl, heat the kettle and just cover with boiling water. Cover the bowl with a plate.
- Heat the oil in a large frying pan and turn the grill to high. Place the bream fillets in the pan skin side down and cook for 2 minutes then put fillets, still in the frying pan, under the grill and cook for 3 more minutes.
- Mix the couscous with a fork to break it up and divide it between four plates. Top with the grilled fish and sprinkle with coriander.
