Ingredients:
Instructions:
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the ground cumin, dried oregano, cinnamon, lemon juice, and minced garlic. Mix well to form a marinade.
- Place the fish fillets into a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the fish, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover the dish and let the fish marinate in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes for the flavors to infuse.
- While the fish is marinating, prepare the salad by combining the spinach, fresh raspberries, spearmint leaves, coriander leaves, and thinly sliced red onion in a large salad bowl. Toss gently to mix the ingredients evenly.
- Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once the pan is hot, add the marinated fish fillets.
- Cook the fish for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork. Cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fillets.
- Season the salad with salt and pepper to taste. Optionally, you can drizzle a little olive oil and additional lemon juice over the salad for extra flavor.
- Once the fish is cooked, remove it from the skillet and let it rest for a minute.
- Serve the spiced basa fillets alongside the fresh raspberry salad for a vibrant and flavorful meal.
Tips:
- Ensure the basa or white fish fillets are fresh for the best flavor and texture.
- If you prefer a stronger spice flavor, you can marinate the fish for 30 minutes before cooking.
- To enhance the flavor of the salad, try lightly toasting the cumin seeds before grinding them.
- For a bit of crunch, consider adding a handful of toasted almonds or walnuts to the salad.
- Feel free to adjust the quantity of lemon juice based on your taste preference.
