Method

Fish Tacos with Mango Salsa

  • Cut fish into 3cm strips, then pat dry. Place flour and spices on a large plate then press the spices all over the fish. Set aside in the fridge.
  • For the salsa, in a small bowl gently toss all the ingredients together. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking. Leave in the fridge while you cook the fish.
  • Heat your pan over a medium heat, add a little olive oil then cook the fish on all sides until golden and crispy. Then drain on a reusable bamboo paper towel. (The time it takes to cook your fish will depend on on the type of fish you have.)
  • To Assemble
    Lay 8 tortillas on your bench, then place a piece of cooked fish in the centre of each. Top with a tbsp or more of Mango Salsa, and serve with extra coriander leaves and spring onions. Sprinkle with chilli flakes if desired.
