4 / 5

The method for Cape Malay Baked Hake (South Africa) was straightforward and the result looked like proper travel food rather than a plain fish supper.

Cape Malay Baked Hake (South Africa) felt fresh, filling, and not overworked. The South Africa influence is clear without needing a long list of difficult ingredients.
