We eat this fish at Dinner Friday night, almost every week. It is most enjoyable to dip the Challah (recipe for that is in my home page on this website) in the cooked sauce with all the flavor of the fish. The Nile perch fish is in my opinion the most delicious fish for this dish, although it is also possible of course to substitute it with salmon fillets, seabass fillets, or even red or white tuna fillets. To the sauce I add parts of pickled lemon (which I also uploaded to the website). Of course, it can be done in a spicy version for those who prefer it spicy.
