  • 18.40 gm macadamia oil
  • 2 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 1 stem lemongrass, pale section only, finely chopped

  • 4.00 gm brown sugar
  • 300g (2 cups) cooked quinoa
Instructions:
  • Spread a layer of cornflour on a plate and gently coat the fish with the cornflour, ensuring to shake off any excess.
  • In a large wok over high heat, heat 3 tsp of oil until shimmering. Add the fish and sear for 2-3 minutes until golden and fully cooked. Place the fish on a plate.
  • In the same wok, heat the remaining 1 tsp oil over medium-high heat. Add garlic, lemongrass, chili, and coriander root and stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant. Add sugar snap peas and beans and stir-fry for 2 minutes until just tender. Remove from heat then add fish, watercress, mint, and coriander. Gently toss everything together to combine.
  • In a small bowl, mix the lime juice, fish sauce, and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Serve the quinoa and fish on plates and top with the flavorful lime dressing.
