HOT ROAST SNAPPER WITH COCONUT, CHILE AND LIME SALSA

Steps:

• For the snapper: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• Using a very sharp knife, score 3 deep slashes on each side of the snapper. Squeeze the lime juice all over the fish.
• Stuff the prepared ginger-herb mixture into the slits as well as into the cavity of the snapper. Set the fish on a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil, and slide it into the preheated oven. Roast, uncovered, for 45 minutes, by which time the flesh closest to the bone of the thickest area should be perfectly white, and not at all glassy.
• For the salsa: Meanwhile, use a potato peeler to make wafer-thin shavings of the coconut flesh. Mix the sugar with the lime juice, stirring until it dissolves, and toss with the coconut, and the lime zest, chiles, and cilantro leaves. Serve the salsa with the snapper

RED SNAPPER IN A COCONUT CURRY BROTH RECIPE

Steps:

• In a Dutch oven or large pot, heat the oil over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring until translucent and slightly caramelized, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring for 1 minute. Add the curry powder and cook, stirring constantly, until the curry is lightly toasted, about 2 minutes. Add the lemongrass sachet, fish stock, and coconut milk and bring to a boil. Cook until the volume is reduced by half, about 20 minutes. Reduce the heat to medium, season the snapper on both sides with 3 teaspoons of the salt, and add to the pot with the brown sugar, red and yellow bell peppers. Cook for 10 minutes. Add the cilantro, stir, and remove from the heat. Cover to keep warm until ready to serve. Meanwhile, in a 2-quart saucepan, combine the water, rice and remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and bring to a boil. Cover and reduce the heat to low. Simmer until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and let sit for at least 5 minutes before fluffing with a fork. To serve, spoon the rice into large bowls and ladle the curry on top. Garnish with additional chopped cilantro and serve. This recipe yields 4 servings.
