4 fillets	Fish, Gemfish (Hake) (Main)
1 to taste	Flaky sea salt
1	Lemon, juice
1	Chervil, (optional)
½ to	Lemons
2	Free-range eggs
½ cup	Rice bran oil

Place fillets on the barbecue or grill pan, skin side down.
Cook the fish longer on this side, so that the skin takes the brunt of the heat.
Flip over to finish the cooking.
In a frypan on a high heat, fry the eggs, cooking the whites but leaving the yolks soft and runny.
To serve, plate up and serve with crusty bread.
