Orange Roughy is a fish particular to New Zealand waters. It's a mild, firm-textured fish and you can substitute hoki, halibut or red snapper (to name but a few).

Ingredients:

6 fillets of orange roughy
2 tbsp water
1 tsp freshly-grated ginger
1/2 tsp lemon juice
1/2 tsp soy sauce
1/4 tsp crushed red chillies
2 tbsp toasted sesame seeds

Method:

Place the fillets in a shallow baking dish. Combine the water, ginger, lemon juice, soy sauce and chilli flakes together and process in a blender until smooth. Pour this liquid over the fillets, cover and marinate in a refrigerator for at least 4 hours.

Remove the fish fillets from the marinade and coat on both sides with the sesame seeds. Oil your grill rack, place the fillets on the rack and grill for about 8 minutes per side, or until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
