Rub the fish fillets with the turmeric, salt and lime juice, let marinate for 15 minutes.
Grill or pan-sear the fish for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden, then set aside.
In the same pan, cook the garlic and chili for 1 minute, add the coconut milk and let reduce for 10 minutes over low heat until the sauce thickens slightly.
Return the fish to the sauce and coat it generously, let it warm through for 5 minutes so it soaks up the flavour.
Serve with coconut rice or ugali.
