Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 F/190°C.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a large ovenproof frying pan or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the onions and coriander seeds and cook for 5 minutes, stirring often. Add the peppers and cook for a further 10 minutes. Add the garlic, bay, curry powder, and tomatoes, and cook another 8 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the sugar, vinegar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, some black pepper, and continue to cook another 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, heat the remaining 1 tablespoons oil in a separate frying pan over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the fish with some salt, dip in the seasoned flour to coat, then in the eggs. Fry about 3 minutes, turning once. Transfer the fish to paper towels to absorb the extra oil, then add to the pan with the peppers and onions, pushing the vegetables aside so the fish sits on the bottom of the pan. Add enough water just to immerse the fish (about 1 cup/250 ml) in the liquid.
- Place the pan in the oven for 10-12 minutes, until the fish is cooked. Remove from the oven and leave to cool to room temperature. The fish can now be served, but it is actually better after a day or two in the fridge. Before serving, taste and add salt and pepper, if needed, and garnish with the cilantro.

Steps:
- Bring a wok or large pot filled halfway with water to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Divide the fish between 2 plates that will fit into the basket layers of a bamboo steamer. Sprinkle the fish with sea salt and freshly ground white pepper. Drizzle 1 to 2 tablespoons of the pineapple juice over each plate of fish. Place the plates into the steamer, cover and set on top of the simmering water. Steam the fish until the flesh turns white and pulls apart easily, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove the steamer basket from the wok and set aside, keeping the fish covered.
- For the sauce: Place a wok over high heat and when the wok is hot, add the oil. Add the garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, less than 1 minute. Add the red peppers and onions and toss to cook until tender, another minute. Add the pineapple chunks and their juice. Add the vinegar, soy sauce and brown sugar. Cook until the sauce thickens a bit 1 to 2 more minutes.
- Remove the fish to a platter. Season the sauce if needed and pour over the fish. Garnish with the sliced scallion.

SPICY AND SOUR FISH MARINADE
This marinade should be a little sour followed by a slow burn in your mouth. It goes perfect with Tilapia and Ahi Tuna. Due to the amount of Oregano in the recipe, it should look slightly "chunky" or "thick". Marinade fish for a minimum of four hours if possible. Taste for spiciness before adding to fish and make sure all of the fish is completely covered before placing in the fridge.This recipe has never been grill-tested--I've always baked it. Any leftover cooked marinade can be used as a sauce as well. The amount produced with the following measurements will cover 2 medium-sized pieces of fish. Cooking time depends on size of fish.

Steps:
- Mix all ingredients in a small bowl with a fork. More tabasco pepper sauce and chili powder may be added to taste.
- Place fish in a zippered bag that is a correct size for the amount of fish. (The less air or empty space in the bag, the better.).
- Add marinade to the bag with a spoon, making sure to coat all pieces of fish. Close bag.
- "Mush" bag around carefully to cover every inch of the fish.
- Place in fridge for a minimum of 4 hours.
Tips:
- Use a firm-fleshed fish: This will help the fish to hold its shape when it is marinated and cooked.
- Marinate the fish for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors of the marinade to penetrate the fish.
- Use a variety of vegetables in the marinade: This will add flavor and texture to the fish.
- Be careful not to overcook the fish: Overcooked fish will be dry and tough.
- Serve the fish with a variety of dipping sauces: This will allow your guests to choose the sauce that they prefer.
