Marinate the two fish fillets in the lemon marinade for 15-20 minutes.

Place the sliced fruit into an oval or rectangular ovenproof dish and coat

the ingredients for the masala paste together and brush generously over the
fish.

Place the turmeric and desiccated coconut on a sheet of greaseproof paper
and rub together between the palms of your hands to colour the coconut.
Sprinkle evenly over the fish.

Bake in the oven at 220C/425F for 20-25 minutes.

Serve with yellow rice and sambal salads - eg cucumber, finely chopped
tomato and onion, green peppers finely diced and mixed with grated carrot.
