Meyer Lemon Ceviche w/ Coriander

Meyer Lemon Ceviche w/ Coriander

Meyer lemon ceviche w/ coriander was bought to you by fish from Georgetown Seafoods, herbs from Thirlstane Gardens, lemons from the ether (who pays for lemons?).

Serves: two as an entrée
Prep time: ~15 minutes work + ~20 minutes marinating

Ingredients

  • ~150 g blue-eye loin trim and belly
  • 2 Meyer lemons (juice & zest of one, segments of the other)
  • ½ bunch coriander, finely chopped
  • 1 mango cheek, peeled and diced
  • ~120 g corn chips
  • ~50 ml + ~30 ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 8 coriander sprigs, for garnish

Method

  • Preheat oven to 160°C. Spread the corn chips on a tray and toast for 10 minutes. Remove and allow to cool. Crush a small handful into a fine crumb and reserve.
  • Using a stick blender, puree the chopped coriander with 50 ml olive oil until smooth.
  • Dice the fish into ~1.5 cm pieces. In a bowl, combine with lemon zest and juice. Allow to macerate for ~20 minutes.
  • To plate, scatter three-quarters of the corn chip crumb on the base. Add lemon segments and diced mango. Spoon over the fish with its juices.
  • Dot with coriander puree and garnish with coriander sprigs. Sprinkle over remaining crumb and drizzle with the remaining olive oil. Serve with the remaining corn chips.
