Sesame Seed Fish Fillets Food

CRISPY SESAME FISH BURGER WITH LIME MAYO

Steps:

• Cut the fish into 4 chunky fingers. Put the flour in a bowl with some seasoning, put the egg in another bowl, and the breadcrumbs and sesame seeds in a third. Dust the fish fingers in flour, then dip in egg and, finally, coat in breadcrumbs. Chill for 10 mins, if you have time.
• Heat a drizzle of oil in a frying pan and cook the fish fingers for 3-4 mins each side until golden and cooked through, adding a drizzle more oil if the pan looks too dry.
• Meanwhile, stone, peel and slice the avocado, squeeze over a little of the lime juice to prevent it from turning brown, then mix the remaining lime juice and coriander into the mayonnaise.
• To serve, spread a little mayo over the base of each bun, top with 2 fish fingers, a few slices of avocado and the bun lid. Serve the remaining mayo on the side.

SESAME-CRUSTED FISH WITH BUTTER AND GINGER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Put seeds on plate. Season fillets with salt and pepper and turn in seeds, patting to coat fillets as fully as possible with seeds. Add oil to skillet and when it shimmers add fillets.
• Brown fish on 1 side for a couple of minutes, then brown on other side for a minute or two. Remove skillet from heat, transfer fish to plate (even if not done) and place plate in oven.
• When skillet has cooled slightly, put over medium heat. Add butter, and when it melts add ginger. About 30 seconds later, add soy sauce and 1/4 cup water and stir to blend. Return fillets to skillet, along with accumulated juices.
• Turn heat to medium and cook fillets for about 1 to 3 minutes until desired doneness, turning 3 or 4 times. (If the pan dries out, add 2 or 3 tablespoons water.) Fish should be done when a thin-bladed knife meets little resistance at fillet's thickest point. Serve pan juices over fish.

BAKED FISH WITH TOASTED SESAME SEEDS

Steps:

• Place the orange juice, brown sugar, ketchup, soy sauce, lemon juice, oil, and black pepper in a small bowl; stir well to combine.
• Arrange the fish in a single layer in a baking dish. Pour the orange juice mixture over the fillets. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours, turning once.
• Remove the fillets from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Pour the marinade into a small saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes. Set half of the marinade aside.
• Place fillets on a lightly greased rack in a shallow roasting pan. Broil fillets 6 inches from heat for 10 to 12 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with a fork, basting occasionally with the marinade.
• Transfer fish to a serving platter. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds (I toast mine in a skillet while the fish is in the oven) over the fillets, and serve with the reserved marinade.

• Drain on paper towels and transfer to prepared pan.
• Bake until fish is just opaque, about 10 minutes.
• Transfer to heated plates.
• Heat remaining sesame oil in small saucepan until almost smoking; pour over fish and serve immediately.

SESAME CRUSTED SALMON (RIKYū-AGE SALMON)

Steps:

• Slice the salmon fillet perpendicular to the backbone, and then into 4 thin pieces (about 1.5cm / ⅝" thick)¾. Cut each sliced piece in half to make 2 large bite-size pieces. (note 4)
• Place the salmon pieces in a zip lock bag without overlapping. Add the Marinade ingredients to the bag, remove as much air as possible and seal the bag. (note 5)
• Marinate the salmon in the fridge for minimum 2 hours, preferably ½ a day.
• Drain the marinade and pat-dry the salmon pieces with kitchen paper.
• Place the egg white in a small bowl. Place the white sesame seeds and black sesame seeds on a separate plate.
• Dunk a piece of salmon in the egg white, then coat the entire salmon piece with the white sesame seeds or black sesame seeds. Repeat and coat 4 pieces with white sesame seeds and 4 pieces with black sesame seeds. (note 6)
• Heat oil in a frying pan to 180°C / 356°F. The depth of the oil needs to be just enough to submerge the salmon pieces or a bit lower (note 7).
• Cook the salmon pieces for 1 minute, turn them over and cook another 1 minute. Do not over-crowd the oil. If your frying pan is small, cook in batches.
• Transfer the salmon pieces to a tray lined with kitchen paper.
• Place two each of the black and white sesame coated salmon pieces on each serving plate.
• Serve with okra and lemon wedges if using.

SESAME-SEED FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Put the fish fillets in a dish and add the lemon juice and Worcestershire sauce. Turn the fillets in the mixture and let stand until ready to cook.
• Put the beaten egg, milk, salt and pepper in a flat dish and stir to blend. Put the sesame seeds and cheese in a separate dish and blend.
• Put the flour in a third dish.
• Lift the fillets one at a time and, using the fingers, wipe off much, but not all, of the marinating liquid. Dip the fillets one at a time in flour to coat well. Dip the pieces into the egg mixture to coat on both sides. Dip in the sesame seed mixture to coat well.
• Heat the oil and butter in a skillet and add the fish fillets (it may be necessary to cook the fish in two steps if the skillet is not large enough, but the amount of oil and butter indicated should be sufficient). Cook two minutes and turn carefully with a pancake turner or spatula. Cook about two minutes on the second side.
• If all the fillets have not been cooked, add a second batch to the skillet and continue cooking in the same manner. Transfer the fillets to a warm platter. Pour the pan fat over all. Garnish with lemon wedges.

SESAME DILL FISH

Steps:

• In a shallow bowl, combine the bread crumbs, sesame seeds, dill and salt. Place yogurt in another bowl. Dip fillets in yogurt; shake off excess, then dip in crumb mixture., Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet. Fry fillets over medium-high heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until fish flakes easily with a fork. Serve with lemon if desired.

WAY TOO EASY SESAME FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Heat oil in pan over med-high.
• Pat dry the fillets (prevents soggy fish).
• Fry fillets 2-3 minutes and turn over for another 2-3 minutes, or until done to your taste.
• Add soy sauce and sesame oil and gently turn to coat both sides.
• Place on serving platter, pour hot oil/soy from pan over fish, scatter with sesame seeds and then scatter scallions.

SESAME-CRUSTED FISH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 deg. F.
• Heat oil in a nonstick pan.
• Brush fillets with the egg whites and season with salt and pepper.
• Coat thickly on one side only with the sesame seeds.
• Saute in oil, seed side down, until golden brown.
• Place seed side up on a cornmeal sprinkled baking pan and bake at 400 deg. until done - this will depend on the thickness of your fillets, probably will take about 5 minutes.
• Or, you can just turn over and panfry until done.
• Note1: Chef recommended grouper or red snapper; I've made this also with tilapia.
• Note2: Baking is really handy if you are making a larger quantity - that way you can finish all the fillets at the same time.

SESAME CRUSTED FISH

Steps:

• Marinate fish in the soy and sesame oil for 15 minutes.
• Drain and dust the fish in flour.
• Dip into the egg and then roll in the sesame seeds.
• Deep fry the pieces in 360 degree oil for 4 or 5 minutes. No longer -- the sesame seeds scorch easily and will be bitter.
• Make a simple dipping sauce with some soy sauce diluted with about a 50/50 ratio of water and some fresh grated ginger. Delicious!
• You may need to cook this in two batches so that the temperature of the oil doesn't plummet. The oil needs to maintain a constant 360 temperature if possible.

CRISPY SESAME FISH

Steps:

• Heat oven to 220C/fan200C/gas 7. Tip crumbs into a bowl with half the sesame seeds. Brush fish fillets with yogurt and coat in the crumb mix. Lay on a baking tray and sprinkle over the remaining seeds. Drizzle with a little olive oil, then bake for 15-20 mins. Serve with oven-baked potato wedges.
