Red Mullet
Submitted
by: Vadi |
2 red
mullet fillets, scaled and pinboned
sea salt to taste
1 lime, zested, and juiced
1 pomegranate |
1 thumb-sized knob fresh ginger
extra virgin Olive oil
small basil leaves
pepper to taste |
|
Slice the fish thinly, but not wafer thin, and put into a bowl.
Add a pinch of salt and squeeze in the lime juice (tip: if you
roll and press the lime, you get more juice). The acid of the
lime cooks the fish, so you will see it change colour. Remove
the seeds from the pomegranate by bashing the back of each 1/2.
Lay the fish on a plate, and from a height sprinkle on the lime
zest and scatter over the pomegranate seeds. Use a sharp grater,
such as a microplane, and grate the ginger over the top. To
finish, drizzle over the oil and scatter on some small basil
leaves. Makes 2 servings. |
