Ingredients

1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 fat garlic clove , finely grated until it resembles a paste
4 skinless sustainable white fish fillets, about 140g each
5 tbsp lime juice
100g cashews
4 mild red chillies
6 fat garlic cloves , peeled
thumb-tip-size piece fresh root ginger , roughly chopped
1 tbsp cumin powder
2 tbsp vegetable oil

Steps:

Rub the oil and garlic paste over the fish with 2 tbsp of the lime juice. Season, then marinate for 20-30 mins.
Heat oven to 190C/170C fan/gas 5. Whizz together the crust ingredients and the remaining lime juice to make a rough paste. Pat the fish fillets dry with some kitchen paper, then press a quarter of the crust onto each fillet. Lift onto an oiled baking tray, then roast for 12-15 mins until cooked through.
