Dry roast 100 g sesame seeds in a small pan on high heat for 5 minutes at most.

You will see that the sesame seeds "jump" like popcorn when they are done.

Bake in the oven for 10 minutes.

If you have an electronic thermometer, stick it into the middle of one of the fish pieces. It will be cooked just right when the temperature reaches 60°C (140°F).

You can put the fish under the grill to finish browning, if necessary, so that the crust is nice and crisp.
