In a food processor, blend the brown crab meat with the mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper and add a little lemon juice to taste. Pass the mayonnaise through a fine sieve to remove any lumps – repeat if necessary

To make the dressing, remove the zest from the lemon with a fine grater and add to a bowl together with the juice. Whisk and slowly add the two oils. Keep whisking until the liquids combine. Finish with the mint leaves, season and set aside

Heat a little vegetable oil in a non-stick pan and place the sea bass fillets, skin side down. Ensure you gain a nice even golden colour before carefully turning the fish. Add a squeeze of lemon and a small knob of butter. Baste the fish well before setting it aside on absorbent paper
