Equipment & Utensils

  • Place spicy mango sauce ingredients into a blender and blend on high until ingredients are throughly puréed.
  • Set sauce aside until ready to serve.
  • Douse skin side of each snapper fillet with 1 tsp of cornstarch.
  • Pat the cornstarch onto the fish so that it sticks to the fish, then season both sides of each fillet with salt and pepper.
  • Heat oil in skillet then carefully place each fillet into the skillet skin side down.
  • Cook on each side for 3-4 mins. Both sides should be golden and the skin crisp.

To Plate

  • Take a spoonful of the sauce, and drop it on one side of each plate, then with the base of the spoon, drag the sauce across the plate. This should give you a swoosh effect.
  • Place a fillet in the middle of each swoosh and pile desired side on top of, and to the side of the fillet.
