Recipe video above. Banish boring baked fish with this sweet n' savoury, gently spiced Asian-style barbecue glaze. A quick finish under the broiler / grill caramelises the glaze for maximum flavour! For the most juicy and perfectly cooked fish, take the fish out when the internal temperature is 55C/135F. Serve with plain or flavoured rice, and some wholesome veggies to complete.
