A definite favourite! The marinade is very easy to prepare and smells so good. I made this as Anzac Day Lunch. My kids go crazy when I always grill fish . I served it with some salad , sliced tomatoes and cassava.

In Africa, we usually chip in with our fingers. That’s how we eat this in Africa delicious grilled goodness . In Africa we eat the fish down to the bones and actually suck the bones to extract some delicious and spicy fish stock. Full of flavour and juicy guys and the aroma is just breathtaking due to the delicious marinade.
