- Preheat oven to 200°C (400°F).
- Arrange grouper fillets in a shallow ovenproof dish.
- In a bowl, stir honey, mustard and curry powder together. Add salt and pepper to taste. Spread sauce evenly over fish fillets.
- Bake in the oven for 12 to 15 minutes, or until fish is cooked.
- Serve with rice and steamed broccoli.
CHEF’S SECRET
Add some lemon or orange zest to the honey-mustard sauce for a fresh citrus aroma that pairs well with the fish.
- Sprinkle the grouper fillets with fresh dill or chives before serving. These herbs complement the flavours of the sauce and add colour.
- For a crispier crust, broil the fillets for the last few minutes of cooking, watching carefully to make sure they don’t burn.
- Experiment with different sides: substitute the basmati rice for quinoa for a gluten-free meal, or serve with carrots and peas for even more colour and nutritious flavour.
- Ensure that the grouper is not overcooked—it should be opaque and flake easily with a fork but still juicy.
