Preparación:
- Begin with the dressing. Whisk all ingredients together and set aside at ambient temperature for the flavours to mature.
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Mix the plain flour with the stock powder until homogenous. Mix the chopped peanuts with the breadcrumbs and set aside.
- Dust the Yellowtail fillets with the seasoned flour and dip into the egg, followed by the breadcrumbs. Once all are coated, double pane by immersing back in the egg, then breadcrumbs for a thicker, more textured coating.
- Lay the fish on a lined baking sheet and bake for 7 minutes, turn over the fillets and cook 8 minutes more.
- Meanwhile, add 1 tbsp of the nuoc cham dressing to a large serving bowl and use to coat the base and sides. Combine the remaining salad ingredients with a further 1 tbsp dressing and tumble into the bowl.
- Once the fish is cooked, place on top of the salad and serve with the extra dressing on the side for drizzling.
- This can also be plated individually. Mix the salad vegetables with a small amount of dressing and place in the centre of a plate. Top with 3 fish fillets and garnish with the fresh herbs. Serve with a small jug of dressing on the s
