• 4 pieces whole fish (such as hammour or mullet)
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon cumin powder
• 1 lemon lemons (juiced)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 4 sprigs fresh coriander

Method

1. 1

   In a bowl, mix olive oil, salt, black pepper, cumin powder, lemon juice, and minced garlic to form a marinade.

2. 2

   Make diagonal cuts on both sides of the fish to allow the marinade to penetrate deeply.

3. 3

   Coat the fish with the marinade, making sure to rub it into the cuts. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

4. 4

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Ensure the grill grates are clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.

5. 5

   Place the marinated fish on the grill and cook for about 10 minutes on each side, or until the flesh flakes easily with a fork.

6. 6

   Remove the fish from the grill and let it rest for a few minutes before serving.

7. 7

   Garnish with fresh coriander sprigs and serve with lemon wedges on the side.
