Escolar Fish With Mango And Shrimp Ravioli Recipes

ESCOLAR FISH WITH MANGO AND SHRIMP RAVIOLI

Steps:

• Whisk together aji panca paste, soy sauce, mirin, ginger, and garlic in a medium bowl. Add pieces of fish and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours.
• Combine water, salt, onion, and ginger in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes to make a quick broth. Add shrimp and boil 1 minute, then drain immediately. When shrimp are cool enough to handle, remove shells. Season shrimp with salt.
• Combine passion fruit juice, rocoto pepper strips, ginger, and sugar in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat. Reduce heat and simmer until mixture is the consistency of honey, about 20 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Heat oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and sauté until opaque, about 1 1/2 minutes. Add aji panca paste and continue to cook, stirring, for an additional 3 minutes.
• Stir aji panca mixture into passion fruit mixture.
• Boil fish stock over moderately high heat until reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Add cream, reduce heat, and simmer for an additional 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Preheat broiler.
• Put cream cheese and turmeric in a large bowl. Warm passion fruit juice in a saucepan over moderately low heat, then whisk in agar agar until dissolved. Pour passion fruit juice over cream cheese and whisk until smooth.
• Peel one flat side of one mango. Cut 8 pasta-thin slices using a mandoline or sharp knife. Peel and slice other side. Repeat with second mango, for a total of 32 slices. Cut a round from each slice with a 3-inch cutter.
• Lay 16 mango rounds on a greased baking sheet and sprinkle with sugar, about 1/2 tablespoon per slice. Broil until sugar melts and browns, about 6 to 7 minutes.
• Divide other 16 mango rounds among 4 plates, lining up 4 rounds on one side of each plate. Spread 1 tablespoon cream cheese mixture on each mango slice. Lay 1 cooked shrimp on top of each. Top each ravioli with 1 caramelized mango slice, sugar side up.
• Heat 2 to 3 inches oil in a 4-quart heavy pot over moderate heat until thermometer registers 375If using carrots, slice lengthwise with a mandoline into 16 flexible strips. Roll strips into coils and secure with toothpicks. Fry coils in oil until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
• Remove fish from refrigerator. Pour flour into a large bowl. Using a fork, transfer pieces of fish to flour and toss to coat. Fry fish in oil until crisp and brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to paper towels to drain.
• Re-warm passion fruit-aji sauce over low heat. Stir in passion fruit juice, 1/2 tablespoon at a time, until sauce is thin enough to drizzle.
• Re-warm salsa marina over low heat.
• Place 4 fish pieces in a vertical line on each plate, each piece opposite a mango ravioli. Spoon a little salsa marina over each piece of fish. Drizzle 4 horizontal lines of passion fruit-aji sauce across each plate, one line across each row of fish and ravioli. Remove toothpicks from carrot spirals. Arrange 4 spirals in a vertical line down the center of each plate, between fish and ravioli. Sprinkle plates with sea salt and chives, and serve.
