Ingredients
- juice of 4 limes
- grated zest of 1 lime
- juice of ½ an orange
- 2 passion fruit
- 1 tsp sea salt
- 1-2 fresh red chillies, deseeded, finely sliced
- 400g (14oz) cod fillets (or other firm white fish) skinned, boned, bloodline removed
- ¼ a red onion, peeled, finely sliced
- 2 radishes, finely sliced
- ½ a large avocado, cubed
- 6 tbsp fresh coriander, finely chopped
- 4 tbsp fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
- ½ a carrot, peeled, finely shredded
- 4 tbsp microgreens, to garnish
- extra-virgin olive oil, to garnish
Method
- In a jam jar or sealed container, mix together the lime juice, zest and orange juice. Place a small sieve on top and empty the seeds from the passion fruit. Using the back of a spoon, press the seeds down until you get as much juice as you can into the jar. Set the seeds aside. Add the sea salt and red chillies, mix, then place in the refrigerator.
- Cut the fish fillets into 1cm (½in) cubes, place into a bowl, pour over the juice and stir. Set to one side to marinate for 10 minutes. Drain the fish, but save the juice, then add the red onion, radishes, avocado, coriander and mint. Stir, then serve in shallow bowls. Top with one or two tablespoons of the reserved juice, shredded carrot, microgreens and a drizzle of olive oil.
