1⁄2 x 28g pack coriander, roughly chopped, plus extra leaves to serve
2 limes, juice of 1, 1 sliced
2 tbsp reduced fat soured cream
1⁄4 tsp ground cumin

1 Put the avocado, onion and coriander in a bowl. Squeeze over the juice of 1⁄2 lime, season and toss together; set aside. In a separate bowl, mix the soured cream, cumin, the remaining lime juice and 1 tsp water; season and set aside.

Repeat until all the fish is cooked.
