Pan-fried fish with a lemon, shallot and black sesame seed dressing

Dressing

1	Shallot, very finely chopped (Main)
1 tsp	Black sesame seeds (Main)
1 tsp	Runny honey
1 Tbsp	Lemon juice (Main)
3 Tbsp	Olive oil
1 dash	Sesame oil, preferably toasted sesame oil
1 serving	Sea salt and cracked black pepper

Fish

2 knobs	Butter
4	Fish fillets, skin on, boned (Main)

Directions

1. Make the dressing, place the chopped shallot, black sesame seeds, honey, lemon juice, olive oil and sesame oil in a clean screw top jar. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Place on the lid and shake well. Remove lid and taste adding more salt, if needed.
2. Heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Add the butter and as it begins to sizzle place in the fish fillets, skin-side-down. Pan-fry until the skin it well browned then turn fillets and cook quickly to just cook the flesh.
