Pickled Fish Recipe

This isn't a true pickled fish more like a cold curry fish dish but it is delicious, it is a South African recipe, and it is taken straight from the book.

Ingrediants;

Fish;

2 kg of Yellow Tail fillets ( or any other fish with the same texture) cut into portions (not cubed) Dollies would be good Till.

Salt and freshly ground Pepper.

Curry Paste;

125ml Sunflower oil

3 Large Onions (thinly sliced)

200 ml brown Vineger

20 ml Sugar

5 ml Tumeric

10 ml Curry powder

5 ml Chillie powder

5 Bay leaves

Salt to taste.

To cook Fish;

Season fish portions with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a deep frying pan and fry fish for 5 minutes on each side, or until medium brown. Remove from oil and drain.

Sauce;

Cook onions, vinegar, sugar and spices in a saucepan until well blended, 5-10 minutes. Add salt to taste. Place drained fish slices in a deep dish and cover with onion mixture. Allow to cool and store covered in the refridgerator for 24 hours before use to allow flavors to develop. Serve with fresh buttered bread. Serves 4-6.
