Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 180°C.
  • Melt the butter in a large lidded dish and sizzle the garam masala for a moment.
  • Stir in the rice until the grains are coated in the spiced butter.
  • Add bay leaf, lemon zest, chilli, ginger, salt, and pepper.
  • Pour in 375ml of stock and bring it to a simmer.
  • Lay the fish on top, submerge it slightly, cover, and bake for 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Remove from the oven and let it stand covered for 5 to 7 minutes.
  • Remove the skin from the fish and add the egg, onions, and coriander.
  • Flake the fish and mix everything gently with two forks while removing the bay leaf.
  • Cover with a tea towel and lid for 5 minutes to absorb excess steam.
  • Mix again lightly and serve on hot plates with a squeeze of lemon juice.
