Ingredients

200 gram skinless barrabundi fillet or other firm white fish

2 tablespoon lemon juice

1 small zucchini (90g), trimmed, sliced lengthways into ribbons

2 red radishes (70g), trimmed, sliced thinly

1 teaspoon tahini (sesame seed paste)

Method

1.Place fish in a steamer lined with baking paper. Place steamer over a saucepan of simmering water. Cook, covered, for 8 minutes or until just cooked through.

2.Meanwhile, combine juice, zucchini and radish in a small bowl; stand until vegetables are pickled, or until needed.

3.Combine tahini and yoghurt in a small bowl; season. Combine coriander, nuts, chilli and half the oil in another small bowl.

4.Carefully transfer fish from steamer to a plate. Cover generously with tahini yoghurt mixture, then top with coriander mixture.

5.Add remaining oil to bowl with zucchini and radish, season; toss to combine.

6.Serve fish with pickled vegetables; accompany with couscous or flatbread, if you like.

You could make the recipe using ocean trout or salmon, if you like. Replace the zucchini with a shaved bulb of baby fennel. Use a mandoline or V-slicer to thinly slice the radish and zucchini.
