Harry Foster - Ultimate Fish Taco Recipe

Ultimate Fish Taco
Feeds: 4 – Prep time: 10 mins

Ingredients

• 400g Spanish Mackerel (can substitute with a similar white fish)
• 2 Whole Corn Cobs
• Lettuce
• 1 Red Onion
• 1 Lebanese Cucumber
• 1 Tomato
• ½ Fresh Pineapple
• 1 Lime
• 1 Bunch Coriander
• 6 Softshell Tacos
• Mexican Spice Mix
• Salt and Pepper to taste
• Olive Oil
• Hot Sauce, Kewpie & Fried Shallots for garnish

Method

Step 1: Prepare the accompaniments

• Dice ½ the onion, the pineapple, and a few sprigs of coriander, then combine in a bowl and set aside for serving.
• Dice the remaining onion, tomato, and cucumber, then combine in a bowl and set aside.
• Peel the husks off the corn, then season with olive oil, salt, and the Mexican spice mix.
• Place over the top of hot coals and turn until cooked and charred evenly.

Step 2: The Fish

• Season the fish fillet with a generous amount of the Mexican spice mix, olive oil, and salt.
• Place the fish on a grill over some evenly distributed hot coals.
• Cook & turn evenly until the outside is crispy but the inside is only just cooked. Let rest for 10 minutes after cooking.
• Gently break the fillet apart and toss together. Season with more olive oil to prevent the fish from drying out.

Step 3: Plate and Serve

• Once the remaining prep is done, grill the soft tacos over the coals.
• Serve alongside the fish, salsa, lettuce, and condiments immediately.
• Garnish with hot sauce, mayo, and fried shallots.
