Cooking Instructions
1. Prepare the Fish
Clean, scale, and pat the fish dry with paper towels. Make 3-4 diagonal cuts on each side of the fish to help it cook evenly.
2. Marinate the Fish
In a bowl, mix olive oil, minced garlic, minced ginger, paprika, turmeric, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Rub this mixture all over the fish, including inside the cuts. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes.
3. Heat the Pan
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add a bit of olive oil to coat the bottom.
4. Fry the Fish
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the marinated fish in the skillet. Fry for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the fish is golden brown and cooked through.
5. Serve
Remove the fish from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes. Serve hot with rice and a fresh salad on the side.
