Ingredients

  • 4 wild bass fillets
  • 1/2 cup shredded coconut
  • 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 lime, cut into wedges
  • Fresh cilantro, for garnish
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Мethod of preparation

Begin by preparing the coating mixture. In a shallow dish, combine the shredded coconut, ground turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Stir the ingredients until well mixed. In another dish, pour the all-purpose flour, and in a third dish, add the beaten eggs. Take each wild bass fillet and dredge it first in the flour, ensuring a light dusting all over. Next, dip the fillet into the eggs, allowing any excess to drip off. Finally, press the fillet into the coconut mixture, ensuring an even coating on both sides. Repeat this process with the remaining fillets. Heat olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, gently lay the coated wild bass fillets in the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, until the fillets are golden brown and crisp outside, and the fish is cooked through but tender inside. Remove the fillets from the skillet and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate. Serve the Turmeric Coconut Crusted Wild Bass with lime wedges for squeezing over and garnish with fresh cilantro for a refreshing finish. This dish pairs perfectly with steamed jasmine rice or a light salad, enhancing the flavors of the tropical coconut and aromatic turmeric.
