Usually I don't wake up with an alarm. I have a cat, we call her Ourania (urania) which means heavenly in Greek, a name that came from the Greek Muse OURANIA (or Urania) who was one of the nine Muses, the muse of music, song and dance. In Classical times she (Ourania) came to be titled the muse of astronomy and astronomical writings. However my cat is far away from heavenly and I am not even sure if she ever going to cross the gate to heaven one day.
But lets talk about fish. Fish is nice, tasty and somehow expensive. Fish is nutricious, is difficult to clean, and sometimes is smelly. Yeah, it is SMELLY. However, I like fish. I LOVE fish, I grew up in an Greek island where the fishing boats were going up and down all the day long, and we were going early in the mornings to the fish port to buy some of their first catches. Then , ( thank God) my grandmother was cleaning the fish, cooking the fish, and the rest of us, eating the fish and being happy.
Nowadays, because I am lazy, or because I just can't find the whole fish easily, I buy fish Fillet. Easy and clean. Mostly wild caught and fresh. maybe not the catch of the day but I compromise.
This Is my favorite and fastest way to cook it:

Go to the market and take some seabass fillet. Thats all!
here is what we need:
Seabass fillet ( 4 -5 pieces)
all purpose flour
sunflower oil for frying
olive oil
2-3 lemons,
A Greek Salad
Fresh Potatoes


1. Wash the fish with cold water and dry the fillets on paper towels. Season both sides with sea salt.
2. In a large frying pan heat 1 cup of sunflower oil and couple of Tbsp of olive oil.
3. In a large plate put 1 cup of flour, (I use a bowl) and make sure to cover both sides of the see. it should be lightly floured, so shake the fillets to get rid of the excessive flour.
4. Put now the fillet in the hot oil, let them fry for 3 minutes each side.; use 2 two forks to turn them on the other side. Usually it takes 8-10 minutes. Remove the fish from the fire and put them on paper towels. The result is a crispy nice golden fish fillet. put the fish on a platter, cut the lemons in halves and squeeze them on the fish.
Serve, with fried potatoes, ( I LOVE THEM ), and salad. EASY!
