fish truck friday 4

another barbecued whole arctic char - simply cooked with salt, pepper & slices of lemon

This week since Doug (le Prince) also bought a hunk of fresh tuna so he could make tuna sushi, he's mad about tuna - me not so much. I decided to keep with the Asian theme and made myself a ginger-orange-sesame-wasabi dressing to go with my arctic char. With a bed of perfect green to go with , sauteed baby spinach & asparagus, everything drizzled with orangey ginger goodness. The bottom photo is of a salad lunch version, left over fish, veggies on a bed of shaved cabbage.

orange ginger dressing *

1 orange juice and zest (finely minced)
1 1-2" knob of fresh ginger (finely minced)
1/4 cup canola oil
2-3 tbsp. rice wine vinegar
2-3 tbsp. soy sauce
1 tbsp. sesame oil
wasabi paste or powder to taste
minced fresh garlic (optional)
splash of fish sauce (optional)

put everything in a small jar and shake vigorously

* I don't really ever measure these ingredients so you made need to taste & adjust as you go

All I can hear is the sound of a tree filled with birds just outside my studio window - hooray !!!
