    Ingredients (serves 2)

    Poached Fish
    • 2 corvina fillets, 6 oz / 170 g each (skinless, pin-bone free)
    • 1 can (13.5 oz / 400 ml) full-fat coconut milk
    • 1 cup / 240 ml fish stock (or water)
    • 2 lemongrass stalks, bruised & cut into 3 in pieces
    • 3 kaffir lime leaves (optional)
    • 1-inch piece ginger, sliced
    • 1 small shallot, sliced
    • 1 tsp sea salt

    Chili-Lime Oil
    • 3 Tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
    • 1 fresh red chili, thinly sliced (or 1 tsp red-pepper flakes)
    • Zest of 1 lime + 1 Tbsp juice
    • Pinch sea salt

    Charred Corn
    • 1 ear sweet corn, kernels cut off
    • 1 tsp butter

    To Serve
    • 1 cup hot cooked jasmine rice (optional)
    • Fresh cilantro & lime wedges



    Step-by-Step
    1. Infuse & Poach (12 min)
    In a wide saucepan, combine coconut milk, stock, lemongrass, lime leaves, ginger, shallot & salt. Bring to a gentle simmer. Slide in the corvina; poach 6-8 min, turning once, until opaque and flaky.
    2. Char the Corn (4 min)
    While fish cooks, heat a dry skillet over high. Add butter, then corn; sear until lightly charred. Set aside.
    3. Make Chili-Lime Oil (2 min)
    Warm olive oil over low heat; add chili & lime zest, simmer 1 min. Remove from heat; stir in lime juice & pinch salt.
    4. Plate & Finish
    Spoon coconut broth into shallow bowls. Nestle fish, scatter charred corn, drizzle chili-lime oil. Top with cilantro, serve with rice & extra lime.

    Total time: 20 minutes.
