Ingredients

  • 1pcs lime
  • 5g Caribbean seasoning
  • 1pcs avocado
  • 1pcs red onion
  • 1pcs bird's eye chilli
  • 50g smoky aioli
  • 2pcs barramundi fillets
  • 50g mixed salad leaves
  • 6pcs flour tortillas
  • 3ml sugar
  • 15ml olive oil
  • 10ml extra virgin olive oil

Method

  1. Step 1 — Prep seasoning mixture
    Check your avocado is ripe before starting this recipe (see cooking tip). Finely grate the lime zest, then juice. Combine the lime zest, half the Caribbean seasoning, ½ tsp sugar and 1 tbs water in a bowl.
  2. Step 2 — Make salsa
    Coarsely chop the avocado. Finely chop the onion. Finely slice half the chilli*, removing the seeds if less heat is desired (the chilli is not essential; you can omit it if you prefer). Put the avocado, onion, chilli and 2 tsp lime juice in a bowl, season with salt and pepper and gently toss to combine.
  3. Step 3 — Make jerk aioli
    Combine the smoky aioli, remaining Caribbean seasoning and 1 tsp lime juice in a bowl.
  4. Step 4 — Cook barramundi
    BARRAMUNDI OPTION Pat the fish dry with paper towel, rub with 1 tbs olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Heat a small frypan over medium-high heat until hot. Cook the fish, skin-side down, covered, for 3 mins. Turn and cook, uncovered, for 4 mins or until cooked through. Scatter the seasoning mixture over the fish and turn to coat. Remove from the pan.
  5. Step 5 — Dress salad leaves
    Meanwhile, combine 2 tsp extra virgin olive oil and 1 tsp lime juice in a large bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the salad leaves and toss to coat.
  6. Step 6 — Warm tortillas and serve
    Put the tortillas on a plate, slightly overlapping, and microwave for 30 secs or until warmed through. (Or, warm the tortillas, in batches, in a frypan over medium-high heat for 30 secs each side.) Flake the fish into chunks. Divide the tortillas among plates and top with the dressed salad leaves, fish and salsa. Drizzle over the jerk aioli to serve.
