Ingredients
- ⅓ cup kecap manis (sweet soy sauce)
- 1 bird's eye chilli, finely chopped
- ½ cup plain flour
- ½ tsp salt, plus extra to taste
- 2 barramundi fillets
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 flour tortillas
- cooked rice, to serve
Salsa
- 2 mangoes, medium dice
- ½ red capsicum, finely chopped
- ½ red onion, finely chopped
- ¼ cup coriander, roughly chopped
- ¼ cup (60 ml) lemon juice
Instructions
- Combine the kecap manis with the chilli in a small bowl, mix well and set aside. Combine the plain flour and salt on a plate, then dredge the barramundi fillets on both sides until well coated.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat, then add the barramundi fillets. Cook for 2-3 minutes, then turn and cook for a further 1-2 minutes, or until golden.
- Transfer the cooked barramundi fillets to a chopping board and cut the fillets into large bite-sized pieces. Place onto a paper towel and sprinkle with salt.
- To make the salsa, in a medium bowl combine the mangoes, capsicum, onion, coriander and lemon juice and mix gently to combine. Heat the flour tortillas in the microwave, or warm in a frying pan.
- To serve, spread the kecap mixture across the tortillas, top with rice, barramundi and the mango salsa.
