Instructions:

Trim fish head (start kitchen knife behind gills and cut diagonally downward toward head, up to center ridge) and clean fish body thoroughly inside and out with cold water. Trim the ventral fins.

Remove the center ridge from both sides, past the bones, just before the tail cut the ridge with scissors: the tail fin thus remains on the fish and holds both fillets together.

Season the inside of the fillets with pepper and season with salt, cover the inside work surface of one fillet with five to six thin pieces of banana at a time and place the second fillet slightly offset over it so that the banana pieces are half covered (so that the banana pieces can be seared a tiny bit).

In a frying pan, with a little olive oil, brown on both sides for four minutes each.

Cut the rest of the banana into small cubes. Sauté shallots with a little garlic and olive oil in a small saucepan. Deglaze with a little fish stock, add curry and half of the banana cubes. Add a squeeze of lemon juice and a little grated lemon peel as well as the remaining banana cubes to the sauce and season.

Serve with long grain rice.
