Try this simple and easy-to-prepare dish and savor how the rich natural flavor of the gindara blend with the taste of lemon in garlic and olive oil.

Ingredients

• 250 grams Gindara slices
• 2 tbsps lemon juice
• garlic powder, salt and pepper to taste
• paprika powder
• 1 tbsp butter
• 1/2 medium-sized carrot, sliced lengthwise
• 1/2 medium-sized green bell pepper, sliced
• 1 piece medium onion, sliced thinly
• 1 piece large tomato, sliced
• 1/2 tbsp leeks (or green onions)

Dressing:

• 1 tsp garlic, sliced thinly
• 1 tsp lemon rind
• 1 tbsp lemon (calamansi) juice
• 1/2 tbsp leeks (or green onion)
• 1 tsp olive oil
• pinch of salt

Preparation

• Wet both sides of gindara slices with lemon juice, then sprinkle with garlic powder, salt and pepper. Let stand for 5 minutes.
• Place half of the butter in a non-stick pan. Pan fry carrots, bell pepper, onions and tomato for 2 minutes. Add leeks, then set aside.
• Sprinkle paprika on both sides of the fish. Using the remaining butter, pan fry the gindara in the same pan. Cook uncovered for 3 minutes until color becomes brown. Shake pan every now and then.
• Turn fish slices over. Cook until fish meat becomes soft and skin becomes crispy, shaking pan in between.
• Prepare the dressing: Mix together garlic, lemon rind, lemon juice, leeks, olive oil and salt.
• Pour dressing over cooked fish garnished with tomatoes and onions on top with carrots and bell peppers in tic-tac-toe arrangement on the side. The photo presentation lacks one more carrot strip to complete the tic-tac-toe :)
• Enjoy a hearty meal!
