Perhaps in trying to make something special I failed because the flavor of the fish I used was too delicate. I used red snapper, and it was completely drowned out by the flavor of the coriander/cilantro. Other than using dried, rather than fresh bread crumbs, and adjusting the amount, I followed the recipe strictly. This would be a lot less trouble and might even taste better if you just used water-pack tuna or some other fish with a comparatively strong flavor.
