Instructions

1 Place fillets on plastic wrap. Score both sides with diagonal cuts in a diamond pattern. Fold plastic over fillets and bang both sides with a rolling pin until half the original thickness. Place fillets in a plastic bag with the next six ingredients. Knead bag to mix and leave to stand.

2 Heat barbecue grill to medium-high or the hot plate to high. Remove fillets from marinade (and reserve the remaining marinade). Place fillets on barbecue and cook for 5-6 minutes each side. Press fillet with your finger, feeling it firm as it cooks.

3 Mix the remaining marinade with apricot jam and brush this mixture over fillet to glaze. Remove fillet from heat and leave to stand for 1-2 minutes then cut in half diagonally. Serve sliced with Crunchy kumara and cashew salad.
