Add garbanzo beans, 2 Tbsp. olive oil and garlic, and salt and pepper to taste. Process until a smooth paste has formed. Add Harissa and process until mixed thoroughly. |
| 3. | Using a gas or charcoal grill, prepare to high heat. Dry barramundi fillets thoroughly. Coat with olive oil and season both fillets with cumin and salt and pepper. |
| 4. | Cook on a hot grill, uncovered for 3 minutes per side, flipping carefully. |
