## Ingredients

- 0.5 cup tahini paste
- 0.5 cup lemon juice
- 0.5 cup cold water
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 cup olive oil
- 1 fresh chili, finely diced
- 4 cloves garlic, crushed
- 1 cup fresh coriander, finely chopped
- 3 spring onions, thinly sliced

1. Preheat oven to 200°C (fan-forced).
2. Line a tray and place the seasoned fish fillet (olive oil, salt, pepper) skin-side down.
3. In a bowl, whisk together tahini and lemon juice—it’ll thicken at first.
4. Slowly add cold water until creamy, then mix in salt and ground coriander.
5. In a pan, heat ½ cup olive oil.
6. Sauté garlic and chili for a minute, then add chopped coriander and spring onion.
7. Cook just until soft, not browned.
8. Stir this into the tahini mixture.
9. Spoon about ¾ of the sauce over the fish (save the rest for serving) and bake for 15 minutes.
