Gorgeously lemony…but mind that heat

Well, does what it says on the tin. Lovely lemon but with the seeds in was a shock to me! Hotter than I’m used to.
Used a finely chopped de ribbed aji Limon to make a quick marinade with a small garlic clove of crushed with salt, 3/4tsp dried Oregano and 3/4tsp dried Epazote and a crushed Allspice berry. Juice of 2 limes, mix together and coat each side of 2 fillets of Hake and leave for 20 mins, turning halfway through.

Heat olive oil in a frying pan and cook gently till done, basting with marinade.

Paul.
