Title: Baked Fish with Tahina
Categories: None
Yield: 1 Servings

4 Fish fillets or whole fish(
-white fish, firm )
Salt, black pepper, touch
-of oil
Garlic
Parsley
Lemon

-----------------------------------SAUCE-----------------------------------
6 tb Tahina paste (not hummous)
3 tb Water
Bit of oil

-------------------------------------OR-------------------------------------
2 tb Water -and-
1 tb Lemon or white wine vinegar
-(i LIKE LEMON BEST)
2 Cloves garlic, minced
Salt/pepper

cut 2-3 incisions in the skin of the fish on both sides and rub inside and
out with mixture of pepper/salt and a bit of oil. Put the garlic inside the
fish. Sprinkle with parsley , set aside, leave one hour. put fish in a
baking dish.

Prepare tahina sauce and (optional) add 1/2-1 tsp hot chili or some type
of harissa ( prepared ok). Pour the sauce over the fish.. bake 350 oven for
30 minutes ( or until the fish is tender). Serve with lemon wedges,
/lightly toasted pine nuts or almonds rice is a great addition...to sop up
the sauce... also pita...

Note: you can be creative...sometimes I just put lots of parsley and
garlic in the tahina...but you have to know who you are feeding, and if
they like things with a bit more punch. The tahina gets sort of golden..
and there is never any left.
