I really enjoy cooking, and am getting into healthier food. This recipe is really simple, and tastes great! The ingredients are to feed 4 people, just divide them relevant to the number of people you're cooking for!

Ingredients:

2 lemons

4 X 300g small mackerel OR 4 X 150g fish fillets

1 tbsp vegetable oil

3 tbsp soy sauce

1 tsp sugar

Rice or noodles to serve

Takes 25 minutes, serves 4

Method:

1. Thinly slice one of the lemons. Season the fish then place the lemon slices down the length of each. Tie in place with string.

2. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and cook the fish, lemon side down, for 3-4 minutes until well browned. Turn and cook the other side for 3 minutes.

3. Add the soy sauce, four tablespoons of water, and the sugar to the pan. Squeeze in the juice of the remaining lemon and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the fish is cooked through. Serve on rice or noodles, and spoon over the pan juices.
