Ingredients
For the fish:
- 450 grams firm white fish such as barramundi, snapper, mahi-mahi (dolphinfish)
- 2 eggs
- 1 cup gluten-free plain flour
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon chilli powder
- ½ teaspoon salt
For the dressing:
- ½ cup dairy free greek yoghurt or mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon sriracha
- 1 teaspoon honey
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- Squeeze lime juice
- Salt and pepper to taste
For the slaw:
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 1 large carrot shredded
To serve:
- 8-10 gluten free corn tortillas
- Avocado
- Lime wedges
- coriander/cilantro
Instructions
- Cut the fish evenly into chunks, removing any skin if needed. In a shallow bowl, mix together the flour, onion powder, garlic powder, chilli powder and salt. In a second shallow bowl, whisk together the eggs.
- Dip each piece of fish first in the egg, then the flour mixture and place into the basket of an air fryer that has been lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Repeat with all of the pieces. Give the fish a spray again with cooking spray and place into the air fryer at 200°C/400°F for 8 minutes approximately depending on the size of your fish pieces, carefully turning each piece with tongs half way through.
- While the fish is cooking, mix together all of the dressing ingredients in a small bowl. In a large mixing bowl combine half the dressing with the shredded carrot and cabbage and mix well to combine.
- Heat the corn tortillas carefully over a gas flame or in a pan and it’s time to assemble. Place a little of the slaw mixture on each tortilla followed by the fish. Top with avocado and a drizzle of the remaining dressing. Garnish with lime wedges and coriander if desired.
Notes
Oven bake method - if you don’t have an air fryer you can add the coated pieces of fish to a lined baking tray, spray with oil and then bake for 15-20 minutes turning half way or until the fish is just cooked through.
