Spiced Basa and Vegetable stack

I am not a sea food fan, but after trying this spice rub on the fish I am not sure if I crave for fish or this combination. It's like spicing up the fish in Indian flavors and serving it with one hearty portion of veggies.
Spiced Basa & Vegetable Stack
Spiced Basa served with tzatziki & sliced lemon 
Serves: 2
Preparation: 10 mins
Cooking: 20 mins

Ingredients:

2 Basa fillets
1 zucchini, sliced lengthways
1 eggplant, sliced lengthways
1 medium onion, cut in thick slices
1 carrot, sliced lengthways
Olive oil spray

Spice mix:
1/2 teaspoon cumin powder
1/2 teaspoon coriander powder
1 pinch turmeric powder
1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
1/2 lemon juice
Salt to taste

Directions:

  1. Wash, clean & cut Basa fish fillets in half.
  2. Mix all the spice mix and rub it well on the fish fillets and leave it on for 10 mins.
  3. In the mean time heat up griddle pan and once ready spray on some olive oil.
  4. Add zucchini, eggplant, onion and carrot and cook until they take a nice char-grill colored strips.
  5. On a service dish stack up these vegetables one on another and keep them warm.
  6. Add more olive oil on the pan and put on the fish fillets.
  7.  Remember fish doesn't take a lot of time to cook and can stick on to the pan. So be quick and spray more oil if required.
  8. Once done, layer it on top of the veggies and serve hot along with tzatziki and lemon slice.
Note: Tzatziki is a refreshing yogurt, cucumber & garlic dip that is a perfect compliment to any grilled meat and vegetable.
