About

Widely used in North African cuisine, harissa paste imparts chilli heat with a wonderful depth of flavour that includes garlic, citrus and smoky notes. The smoky garlic butter adds an elegant finishing touch to this deceptively simple dish. Seabass is a wonderful fish full of protein, great for your heart and brain health, and so easy to digest. If you don’t want to cook a whole fish, you can easily use fillets without any compromise on flavour.
