Serves 2
½ cup sushi rice*
2 coral trout side fillets
3 tbsp olive oil
¼ cup hoisin sauce
To Serve
1 Lebanese cucumber
2 tbsp crispy chilli in oil
1 peeled garlic clove
Method:
Remove fish from the fridge. Rub 1 tbsp oil into the skin side. If using coral trout, cut side fillets in half across. Mix remaining oil and hoisin sauce and spread over the flesh side.
Preheat air-fryer at 160C. Place glazed fish in the air-fryer and air-fry for 10-12 minutes, the flesh should turn opaque and fish should be flaky and juicy in the middle.
Meanwhile, peel cucumber and chop it roughly. Drizzle with crispy chilli in oil and mix with crushed garlic. Serve fish with rice and cucumber salad on the side.
*Notes: We used coral trout here, but barramundi, salmon or ocean perch fillets are a great option for this recipe. We used dry sushi rice, cooked in a rice cooker according to packet instructions. For convenience, you can use microwave rice pouches. Brown rice or long grain rice work well.
