Moroccan Fish Recipes

Steps:

• Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Stir in onion and garlic; cook and stir until the onion has softened and turned translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garbanzo beans, bell peppers, carrots, tomatoes, and olives; continue to cook until the peppers are slightly tender, about 5 minutes more.
• Sprinkle parsley, cumin, paprika, chicken bouillon, and cayenne over the vegetables. Season with salt. Stir to incorporate. Place tilapia on top of the vegetables and add enough water to cover the vegetables. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until fish flakes easily with a fork and juices run clear, about 40 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Heat oil in skillet & add onion, parsley, sesame seeds, and garlic. Saute until onion is soft.
• Add tomato paste, lemon juice, cumin, coriander, salt, paprika, cayenne, & water.
• Stir & heat through.
• Place fish in 8x8" baking dish & pour sauce over.
• Bake 30-45 minutes.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Score the fish with a paring knife by making several 1-inch slits in the skin on each side, being careful not to cut in too deep. Put the fish on a dish and drizzle with the lemon juice and 1/2 of the oil. Press the garlic into the score marks. Rub the spice mix all over the inside and outside of the fish. Cover with plastic wrap, and allow it to marinate in the fridge for one hour. Heat a skillet large enough to hold the whole fish over high heat until it is almost smoking. Carefully pour the remaining oil into the pan and let it heat. Place the fish in the pan, sear it well on both sides, and then place it in the oven for about 7 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily. Transfer the fish to a serving platter.
• Combine all ingredients in a small bowl.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large heavy-based pan over a medium heat.
• Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for five minutes, or until the onion is translucent.
• Add the garlic, ginger, cumin, turmeric and cinnamon stick and cook for two minutes, stirring regularly.
• Add the cayenne pepper, tomatoes, salt and 250ml/9oz of water and cook, stirring frequently, for ten minutes.
• Add the fish and simmer for five minutes, or until the fish is almost cooked and tender.
• Add the chickpeas and honey and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, then season, to taste, with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• To serve, spoon out the stew into bowls and garnish with fresh coriander leaves and flaked almonds.

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a large flameproof casserole dish or saucepan and gently fry the onion, leeks and fennel for 10 mins, stirring occasionally, or until the veg is well softened and lightly browned. Add the garlic and spices, and cook for 30 secs more. Season well with ground black pepper.
• Tip in the chopped tomatoes, sweet potatoes, peppers, chickpeas, orange juice and peel with 300ml water and bring to a gentle simmer. Cover loosely and cook for 20 mins, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are softened but not breaking apart.
• Add the fish pieces on top of the bubbling liquid and cover. Poach over a medium heat for 3-4 mins or until the fish is just cooked. Adjust the seasoning and serve scattered with parsley.
