Baked Fish And Bananas Food

COD BAKED IN BANANA LEAVES

Steps:

• Pre-heat the oven to 220C/425 degrees F/ Gas Mark 7.
• First you need to line a large roasting tray with the banana leaves. You do this by holding them over the hob so the whole leaf is warmed and softened (this makes it more pliable) and placing them in the tray so there is a large piece overlapping on all sides. You need to make sure there are no gaps. Sprinkle over the chili, coconut, ginger and coriander, then place the cod, skin side up, on top.
• Drizzle with olive oil, season with sea salt and squeeze the lime juice over the top. Place the squeezed limes in the tray.
• Fold the banana leaves over the fish to seal, and place something heavy and ovenproof on top to keep in place.
• Place in the middle of the oven and cook for about 25 minutes.
• When the fish is ready, remove the skin from each fillet and serve on warmed small squares of banana leaf, spooning over all the delicious juices, with a little cooked rice and a sprinkling of fresh coriander leaves.

FISH WITH BANANAS

Steps:

• Heat butter in a medium sauté pan until melted. Add mushrooms at medium-high heat. Add tarragon. Stir to coat and sauté until the majority of the liquid has been cooked out of the mushrooms. Add salt & pepper as needed. Remove from heat and divide mushrooms amongst the two au gratin dishes.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Once butter is melted, add shallots. Saute slightly until they are fragrant and start to become translucent, about 3 minutes. Add white wine. Turn heat to low and simmer.
• In a separate, small saucepan, heat egg yolks, stirring constantly until they become thick. Once thickened, add 1 tablespoon butter and orange juice. Stir to combine, then add to white wine-shallot mixture. Add whipping cream and tarragon and stir to combine.
• Remove sauce from heat and put in a blender. Blend until combined and whipping cream becomes frothy. Pour back into saucepan and simmer on low heat.
• Once rewarmed, drizzle half of the sauce over the mushrooms in the two au gratin dishes.
• Preheat oven to 425 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Season the two pieces of fish with salt & pepper.
• Warm olive oil in a medium sauté pan over high heat. Add seasoned fish and sear lightly (about 2 minutes each side.)
• Place one piece of fish over the mushrooms and sauce on each of the au gratin dishes.
• Drizzle each piece of fish with the remaining sauce.
• Heat butter in a small sauté pan over medium-high heat. Once butter is melted and pan is hot, add slices of banana. Caramelize until lightly golden (about 1-2 minutes each side.) Remove bananas from pan and place slices on top of the sauced fish in the au gratin dishes.
• Place au gratin dishes in preheated 425-degree oven. Bake for about 18 minutes or until sauce is bubbly and golden. Remove from oven and let cool slightly before eating.

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 375 and season fish on both sides with salt, pepper, paprika and red pepper.
• 2. in a 9x13 baking pan line with aluminum foil and spray with Olive oil. Spread 1/2 of bread crumbs on the bottom of the dish and arrange fish on top of bread crumbs.
• 3. Slice banana to cover each fillet with a thin layer of banana. use remaining breadcrumbs to cover bananas. sprinkle nuts on top of that, spray a little more olive oil on top so the breadcrumbs brown slightly. Bake in oven until thickest part of fish is opaque, about 20 minutes.
• 4. Serve with salsa on the top or the side. I usually serve a nice green salad or green beans on the side.
• 5. To Make salsa: finely dice 1c tomato, 1/2c red onion, 1/4c green pepper, 1/2c mango, 1/2 to 1 finely diced jalapeno, 1tsp calentio, 1/4c lime juice, and salt and pepper to taste.

PEANUT-CRUSTED FISH FILLETS WITH FRIED BANANAS

Steps:

• Peel the bananas and cut them lengthwise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. In a large ovenproof skillet heat 1 tablespoon of the butter and the oil over moderately high heat until the foam subsides, in the fat sauté the banana slices for 1 minute on each side, or until they are golden, and transfer them with a spatula to a plate. Pat the fish dry and sprinkle it with the cumin and salt and pepper to taste. Have ready in separate shallow dishes the egg beaten with the salt and the peanuts. Dip each fillet in the egg mixture, letting the excess drip off, and dredge it in the peanuts. To the skillet add the remaining 1 tablespoon butter, heat it over moderately high heat until the foam subsides, and in it sauté the fillets for 3 minutes. Turn the fillets, top them with the banana slices, and sauté them for 2 minutes more. Drizzle the fish with the lime juice, transfer the skillet to the middle of a preheated 450°F. oven, and bake the fish for 5 minutes. Transfer the fillets with a spatula to 2 heated plates and serve them with the lime wedges.
