I had some nice Sweetlip fillets in the freezer (thanks Chris) and felt like something tasty and healthy for dinner tonight. This is the recipe I came up with to go with the fish. YUM
Spice paste for fish
Works well with white fish fillets
1 small bunch coriander, including stems and roots, washed and chopped
2 cloves garlic, chopped
3cm piece ginger, peeled and chopped
2 tbs extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp brown sugar
1 1/2 teaspoons sambal oeleck (chilli paste)
a few sprigs fresh mint leaved, picked
2 tsp rice wine
2 tbs fish sauce
Place all the above ingredients in a small blender and blend to a thick paste. Coat fish fillets in the paste and cover and marinate at least 1 hour.
Pan fry fillets in a little olive oil, turning once. When fish is cooked, remove from pan and throw in the cherry tomatoes, cook for 2 minutes until warmed and slightly cooked.
Serve fish over brown rice, and top with tomatoes. Serve with Avocado Salsa
Avocado Salsa
1 medium avocado,diced
1 lebanese cucumber, diced
2 tbs chopped coriander
2 spring onions, chopped
juice of 1/2 lime
