Salt/pepper to taste
Tablespoon of oil

Pour in coconut milk and stir the lot
Turn heat down a bit, cover, cook for 5 minutes (stirring occasionally - add some water if moisture reducing too fast)

Add in fish and any leftover lemon juice
Turn heat up to medium and cook for 5 minutes (stirring occasionally until fish cooks)
