Caribbean Style Fried Fish - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    4 fish fillets
    1 lemons or 1 lime
    4 garlic cloves, peeled
    1 small onion, peeled and roughly chopped
    4 spring onions, trimmed
    1 scotch bonnet peppers (heat of choice) or 1 red chili (heat of choice)
    6 stems fresh coriander
    salt & freshly ground black pepper
    oil, for frying
    plain flour, for dusting (gluten-free if required for diet)
Preparation
    Wash the fish and pat it dry with absorbent kitchen paper. Squeeze a few drops of lemon or lime juice on to the flesh.
    Place the garlic, onion, spring onion, chilli, coriander and seasoning into a small blender and puree to a paste.
    Spread the paste over the fish and leave it to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
    Heat some oil in a frying pan.
    Put some plain flour in a bowl and dip the fish in it.
    Place the fish in the hot oil, without overcrowding the pan. Fry the fish on each side until golden brown.
    Remove the fish from the pan and place on absorbent kitchen paper to absorb any excess oil.
    Serve with a light salad on the side.
