Fish in Garlic Sauce
Cut into large chunks. Mix together cumin, coriander, ground anise, chile powder, garlic, lemon juice and salt, blending to a smooth paste. Cook fish, a few pieces at a time, 2 to 3 minutes, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Use only Clarified butter (dont think of using margarine) Dust the fillets lightly with flour. Meanwhile, heat some of the clarified butter in a frying pan until hot but not smoking. Saute the fish until lightly browned (some Mexican cooks fry fish until it is the approximate consistancy of our potato chips , but I feel this is taking authenticity a bit too far :-
