Mexican fish stew with char-grilled tortillas for ultimate flavor pairing.
Ingredients:
  • 1 corn cob, husk and silk removed
  • 4 flour tortillas
  • 18.20 gm extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 red onion, cut into wedges
  • 1 red capsicum, thickly sliced
  • 2 fresh thyme sprigs
  • 2 garlic cloves, sliced
  • 1 1/2 tsp Mexican chilli powder
  • 500g baby white potatoes, quartered
  • 2 x 400g cans diced tomatoes with basil and oregano
  • 4 x 160g boneless firm white fish fillets
  • 125.00 ml fresh coriander sprigs
  • 1 fresh jalapeño chilli, sliced
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
Instructions:
  • Preheat a chargrill pan over medium-high heat. Grill corn for 5-6 minutes until tender and charred. Transfer to a board. Place tortillas in the pan and cook each side for 1 minute until lightly charred. Keep warm under a cover and repeat with the rest of the tortillas.
  • In a large deep frying pan over medium-high heat, sauté onion and capsicum in heated oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in thyme, garlic, and Mexican chilli powder, cooking until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add potato, tomatoes, and 1 cup water. Cover, bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes until the potato is tender.
  • Place the fish in the pot and simmer without covering for 5 to 7 minutes, or until the fish is perfectly cooked. Remove and throw away the thyme sprigs.
  • Carefully cut corn kernels off the cob using a small knife. Transfer the kernels to a bowl and mix in coriander, salt, and pepper. Toss the ingredients together. Sprinkle the jalapeño and corn mixture over the stew and serve with tortillas and lime wedges.
