Ingredients

  • 2pcs tomato
  • 1pcs lemon
  • 1clove garlic
  • 150g couscous
  • 5g chermoula seasoning
  • 2pcs barramundi fillets
  • 50g rocket leaves
  • 30ml olive oil
  • 200ml boiling water
  • 30ml mayonnaise

Method

  1. Step 1 — Prep ingredients
    Finely chop the tomatoes. Finely grate the zest of half the lemon, then juice the half. Cut the remaining lemon into wedges. Crush ½ garlic clove*.
  2. Step 2 — Soak couscous
    Put the couscous in a large heatproof bowl, add the lemon zest, half the lemon juice and 2 tsp olive oil, then pour over 200ml boiling water and cover with a plate. Stand for 5 mins or until the water is absorbed. Season with salt and pepper, then fluff with a fork.
  3. Step 3 — Cook fish
    Meanwhile, scatter 2 tsp chermoula seasoning over the fish and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a medium frypan over medium heat. Cook the fish for 3½-4 mins each side until browned and cooked through (see Kitchen 101). Remove from the pan.
  4. Step 4 — Make lemon aioli
    Put the garlic, remaining lemon juice and 2 tbs mayonnaise in a bowl, season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  5. Step 5 — Serve up
    Add the tomato and rocket to the couscous. Drizzle with 1 tbs olive oil and toss to combine. Divide the couscous salad and fish among plates. Top with the lemon aioli and serve with the lemon wedges. Enjoy!
  6. Step 6 — Kitchen 101
    Not sure if your fish is cooked through? Simply use a fork or the tip of a knife to take a peek inside the thickest part of the flesh; if it comes apart easily, the fish is cooked.
