Fish with cumin and garlic



Finally, I have found fresh fish. I know people will say that you can easily find fresh fish in Canada and USA, but it is not true. You can find defrost fish that looks like fresh, but the taste is not the same. However, I was told that two hours from here, you can find a market with fresh produce and seafood, and immediately I made a day trip. I came back with lots of fish, and fresh produce.

Fish with cumin and garlic

6 pieces of fish previously cleaned
1 lemon
4 garlic cloves cloves chopped
2 teaspoons of cumin freshly grinded
Potatoes
Onions
Tomatoes
Olive oil
salt

Place the fish in a clean pot. Mix the lemon juice with garlic cloves, cumin, and olive oil. Add it to the fish, and let it marinate it for 3 hours in the fridge.

In an oven proof tray, place a generous amount of olive oil, then potatoes, onions, and tomatoes. Place the fish on top, and bake it for 30 minutes at 400F. ENJOY!




I ask for lots of fish heads, and immediately I made fish broth. Now, I have a good amount to make delicious dishes!!

  1. Same here...all the fish were frozen, then defrosted...I used to have fish fresh out of the sea daily when I lived with my mom because my brother went fishing weekly. And I was the one who finished all the fish :-) This looks so fresh and flavourful.

  2. This looks very appealing. We need to get back to eating fish more often.

  3. I’m a big fan of fish dishes, but cooking a fish head still feels too intimidating for me.
