Add salt, pepper and the chopped parsley plus the half of a thinly chopped laurel sheet.

Mix carefully the salt, the pepper, the juice of a lemon, a spoonful of olive oil and a small spoonful of coriander seeds in order to prepare the sauce. Mix it again until it becomes homogeneous.
Put the fish on a frying pan with olive oil and fry them until they are still tough.
In each plate put two pieces of fish, the potatoes, and some sauce.
