This recipe is particularly good as a marinade for sardines, and would be enough for about 15 of these fish.You will need
2 tsp coriander seed
1 garlic clove, roughly chopped
1 dried long red chilli
1 lime, juice and finely grated rind
4 tbsp olive oil
salt & pepper to taste
fresh coriander (to garnish)
MethodToast the coriander seeds for a minute. - Place them in a mortar & pestle with the garlic, chilli & salt to taste. - Add the juice & rind of the lime, then slowly add the oil to make a good coating mixture. - Cover the fish with the mixture, and leave in the fridge for at least one hour, turning occasionally. - Grill for about three minutes for sardines (other fish will vary), basting with marinade as it cooks. - Garnish with sprigs of fresh coriander.
