Ingredients

Fish scrolls with capsicum salsa
  • 1 kilogram firm white fish fillets
  • 1/4 cup (60ml) red vinegar
  • 1/3 cup (80ml) olive oil
  • 1/2 small red capsicum (75g), chopped finely
  • 1/2 small green capsicum (75g), chopped finely
  • 1/2 small red onion (50g), chopped finely
  • 1 small tomato (90g), seeded, chopped finely
  • 1 fresh long red chilli, seeded, sliced thinly
  • fresh coriander leaves, to serve
  • banana leaves, to serve

Method

Fish scrolls with capsicum salsa
  • 1
    Cut fish into 30 x 12cm strips, 1cm thick. Roll each strip into a scroll, secure with a skewer; season.
  • 2
    Combine vinegar and oil in a small saucepan; stir over low heat for 3 minutes or until warm – do not boil. Combine capsicum, onion and tomato in a small bowl; pour over warmed vinegar mixture, season to taste.
  • 3
    Meanwhile, heat an oiled large frying pan over medium-high heat; pan-fry fish, in batches, for 1½ minutes each side or until just cooked through.
  • 4
    Cut banana leaves into large rectangles; serve fish on banana leaves with capsicum salsa. Sprinkle over chilli and coriander.

Notes

You will need 30 small (15cm) bamboo skewers and a large banana leaf. Banana leaves can be ordered from fruit and vegetable stores. Cut with a sharp knife close to the main stem, then immerse in hot water so the leaves will be pliable. Depending on the shape of the fish, you may need to roll two pieces of fish together.
