Finely chop the garlic and hot pepper, and cut the fish into large portions.
Turn the garlic and hot pepper in olive oil for 2 minutes.
Add the ground red pepper and cumin, and bloom them for 1 minute.
Add the tomato puree and salt to the pot, and reduce the sauce for 12 minutes.
Nestle the fish pieces into the sauce, cover, and cook for 8 minutes.
Turn the fish once and cook for 4 more minutes.
Add the lemon juice and parsley, and serve chraime with rice.
💡 Tip: Add the fish only after the sauce has boiled; fillets that cook too long break apart and disappear into the sauce.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve chraime hot with optional plain rice and lemony arugula to complete the fish table.
