1

In a small bowl, prepare the marinade by combining the turmeric, cumin, coriander, finely minced garlic, salt, black pepper powder and olive oil.

2

Thoroughly wash the fish and pat dry.

3

Line a baking tray with aluminium foil (it should be large enough to completely wrap the fish).

4

Place the fish on the baking tray and rub the marinade all over the fish, including the inside.

5

Thinly slice the lemon. Place the slices inside the fish along with the coriander.

6

Fold the foil to cover the fish and leave to marinate in the fridge for approx. 30 minutes.

7

Preheat the oven to 200°C, gas mark 6.

8

Once the fish has marinated for a while, place the tray in the oven and bake for approx. 45–50 minutes, until the fish is opaque and its juices are milky white.

9

Remove the foil carefully and serve the hammour while still hot.
