1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Lemon juice
Oil for frying
For the coconut sauce:
500ml coconut cream
1 tsp curry powder
Juice of 1 lime
Salt to taste
What to do:
Clean and lightly slice the fish, taking care not to cut it all the way through. This will give it more flavour. Mix all the other ingredients together and marinate the fish, then put the marinade into the cuts you made in the fish.
Put some oil in a frying pan and heat it up. When the oil is hot, add the fish and fry.
When one side is cooked, gently flip the fish over and cook the other side. Make sure both sides are cooked.
When both sides are cooked, remove from the heat and place on a plate with a paper towel to absorb any oil.
In a separate saucepan, bring the coconut cream and curry powder to the boil. Add the lime juice and salt and cook until thick, then pour over the fried fish. Garnish with lime slices.
Serve with ugali.
