Glad I found your site. I had a turkish neighbor for a few months here in Okinawa. I miss her and her food. She taught me a few dishes and I am looking foward to trying your dishes. She liked it HOT but I am a milder person so I wont be using as mich hotness. This looks like a great recipe and I am off to the fish market now!

This looks yummy. I've never had snapper. Is it a flaky or oily type of fish? I married a Turkish guy and your website is lovely for making him Turkish food, so thank you :)

Tinny,
It's a flaky and low fat fish and it tastes so good.
I suggest you to give a try.
It's good to hear you like my website.
Love,
