1. In a saucepan,
heat oil over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, carrot, and celery.
Cook vegetables until softened, 5 to 7 minutes. Add tomatoes; cook
vegetables until very tender, about 10 minutes more. Add tomato
paste, molasses, honey, sugar, mustard, cumin, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/4
teaspoon black pepper, cayenne pepper, and 2 cups water; stir to
combine. Simmer gently until thickened, about 30 minutes. Transfer
to the bowl of a food processor or blender; puree until smooth.
Refrigerate until ready to serve. |

2. Preheat a grill
or grill pan to medium hot. Season fish with remaining 1/2 teaspoon
salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Brush generously with sauce. Grill
until fish is cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side. When fish is
done, remove and discard skin. Serve over pilaf drizzled with
reserved sauce. |
