Faithful
Faithful
Hello people,
A couple of days ago, my daughter turned 14 years old. As is usual when any of my children’s birthday falls on a school day, I decided to welcome her back from school with a little something special. And so, I created the following menu and named it Faithful. The name is as a result of the heart-felt gratitude of a mother in honour of a loving God who has been unstintingly faithful to her and her beloveds.
The piece around which the recipe is woven is Guacamole – a well-known dip/snack made from Avocado pear. As with every menu yours truly prepares, I have personalised this dip and brought a little something into it to give it the Sarah ommph. From the look on my daughter’s (and my son’s) face it was a huge success. This was the outcome.
Enjoy!
For the Guacamole:
Two avocado (should be well soften), de-stoned and mashed using a fork
Three spring onions (finely chopped)
A handful of fresh coriander leaves (finely chopped)
One – or two (depending on preference) – fresh chilli (seeded and finely chopped)
3 firm fresh tomatoes (seeded and roughly chopped)
Juice from one lime
Salt and black pepper to taste.
Mix all the ingredients in a bowl and set it aside.
For the fish:
Half a kilo of fresh salmon steak (pat dry to remove any liquid)
A cube of fresh ginger (crushed)
Two garlic cloves (crushed)
A tablespoon of green pesto (mix it with the crushed ginger and garlic)
Salt and black pepper to taste.
Lay the fish out on a flat plate. Sprinkle the salt and pepper on each. Spread dollop of pesto on each and set it aside for a ten minutes.
Bring a frying pan to fire. Drop a dollop of butter in it and when it’s melted, put the fish steak – pesto side up – and gently steam fry until the fish is cook; approximately three minutes.
Put the guacamole on the centre of a flat serving dish, surround one side with nachos and sliced grapes and put the fish on the other and…la voila!
P/S To steam-fry – put a cover on the pan – this will steam the fish and fry it at the same time – great way to prevent the fish from drying out.
