Apricot & pepper rice with sea bass

LET’S MAKE IT

The method

1. 01

   Cook the peppers

   Heat half the oil in a large frying pan. Add the peppers, onion and apricots and cook for 5–6 minutes, until soft and starting to caramelise.

2. 02

   Add the rice

   Stir in the spice blend for 1 minute. Add the rice, break up any clumps, toss well and season.

3. 03

   Prepare the sea bass

   Pat the sea bass dry and season the skin with salt. Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick pan over a medium-high heat.

4. 04

   Crisp the fish

   Fry skin-side down for 3–4 minutes, pressing gently so it crisps. Flip and cook for 1–2 minutes, until just cooked.

5. 05

   Mix the dressing

   Whisk the dressing ingredients with a pinch of salt, adding water until smooth and drizzleable.

6. 06

   Serve

   Serve the rice topped with sea bass, tahini dressing, feta, pomegranate seeds and parsley.
