The Gemfish is a snake mackerel found in the oceans around New Zealand and south eastern Australia. This recipe for gemfish coked in chermoula marinade comes from New Zealand, but is based on a Moroccan original.

Method:

Combine the coriander, parsley, garlic, paprika, cumin, ground coriander, cayenne pepper, lemon juice an olive oil then process until smooth.

Marinate the fish in this mixture for at least 1 hour (best done over night in the refrigerator). Remove the fillets from the marinade then place on a barbecue or under a grill (broiler) and cook for about 3 minutes per side, basting frequently with the marinade whilst cooking, turning carefully only once.
