Cooking with seafood is often speedy and straightforward, and this Malaysian-inspired halibut recipe is no exception. It was created by the brains behind Asian food brand Mak Tok, and uses the producer's Signature Chilli Paste to give the white fish a satisfying kick. Charred slightly under the grill and served with a homemade dipping sauce, it's a real winner.

Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp white wine vinegar
  • ¼ onion, finely diced
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • ½ lime, juice only
  • 6 tbsp Chilli Paste
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 halibut fillets (approx. 210g)

Method

Step 1

Turn on the grill and place a baking tray underneath it to heat. Prepare the dipping sauce by mixing the vinegar, onion, sugar, 2 tbsp water, soy sauce, and lime juice together in a bowl. Set aside.

Step 2

Gently sauté Mak Tok’s Signature Chilli Paste in a pan on a low heat until it starts to sizzle. Continue stirring it for 1 min before removing the pan from the heat.

Step 3

Rub the salt on the halibut fillets then spread the sautéed chilli paste on them and allow to marinate for 10 mins.

Step 4

Place a sheet of baking paper on the heated pan and top with the halibut fillets. Grill each side for 3 mins or until slightly charred.

Step 5

Serve immediately with the dipping sauce.
