Impress your BBQ guests with a sweet barramundi dish, served with chargrilled veggies and tangy ginger-cucumber dressing. Perfect for summer!
Ingredients:
  • 3 bunches Dutch carrots, peeled, ends trimmed
  • 2 bunches asparagus, woody ends trimmed
  • 6 Ocean Barramundi Fillets
  • 2 tsp dried chilli flakes
  • 1 tsp cumin seeds
  • 2.40 gm sea salt flakes
  • 125.00 ml coriander leaves
  • 55g caster sugar
  • 42.00 gm lime juice
  • 21.00 gm salt-reduced soy sauce
  • 12.20 gm fish sauce
  • 2 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 Lebanese cucumber, seeded, chopped
  • 5cm-piece ginger, peeled, cut into matchsticks
Instructions:
  • For the ginger and cucumber dressing, combine sugar, lime juice, vinegar, and soy sauce in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir constantly for 2 minutes until the sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the syrup slightly thickens. Remove from heat and let cool before adding fish sauce, oil, cucumber, and ginger.
  • Preheat a barbecue grill or chargrill on high heat. Brush carrots with a touch of oil and season. Grill for 6-8 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender. Transfer the carrots to a plate. Grill asparagus for 2 minutes until bright green and tender. Add the asparagus to the plate with the carrots.
  • Brush barramundi with the rest of the oil, then season the skin with a blend of chili, cumin, and salt. Cook skin-side down until it's beautifully golden brown and crispy, about 4 minutes. Flip the fish and continue cooking for another 2-3 minutes until it's golden brown and cooked through just right.
  • Distribute carrots and asparagus on plates. Arrange barramundi and coriander on top. Drizzle with dressing.
