Instructions
- 1
Rub the sea bass fillets with olive oil, half of the salt, and black pepper.
- 2
Bake the fish at 200°C for 18 minutes, until opaque.
18 min18:00 - 3
Whisk the tahini, lemon juice, crushed garlic, hot pepper paste, water, and remaining salt.
- 4
Finely chop the cilantro or parsley and stir it into the tahini sauce.
- 5
Spoon the tahini sauce over the fish as it comes out of the oven.

Rest the samak harra for 5 minutes, so the sauce loosens slightly with the heat of the fish.
5 min05:00
💡 Tip: Add the tahini sauce after the fish comes out of the oven; a long bake dries the tahini and makes the sauce look grainy.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve samak harra hot, with bulgur pilaf and parsley onion salad on the side if desired.
