Whole Roast Fish with Desert Lime, Lemongrass & Ginger
A marinade packed with health-boosting aromatic herbs like lemongrass, ginger, Desert Lime, shallots and a touch of lime crushed in a Mortar & Pestle and spread onto a mild white fish, such as barramundi. Serve the roast fish flaked off the bone, over rice or alongside a fresh green veggie salad.
Ingredients
• 3 whole fish, scaled and cleaned.
• 6 tablespoons Lemon Myrtle infused olive oil.
• 1 ½ tablespoons Ancient Purity Celtic Sea Salt.
• 1 stalk lemongrass, tough outer part discarded, chopped.
• 1 (2-inch) piece ginger, scrubbed and chopped.
• 4 spring onions, green parts sliced and white parts trimmed and left whole.
• 1 shallot, peeled and chopped.
• 2 lemons.
• ½ teaspoon ground Biodynamic Turmeric.
• ½ cup full-fat coconut milk.
• 1 teaspoon Ancient Purity Desert Lime Powder.
Preparation
• Heat the oven to 425 degrees. Pat the body and inside of the fish dry, and space the fish evenly apart on an unlined sheet pan. Use a sharp knife to cut two diagonal slits, 2 inches apart, into the skin of each fish, making sure not to cut through to the bone. Repeat the slits on the other side.
• Next, drizzle both sides and the inside of the fish with 3 tablespoons oil, and season with the 1 1/2 tablespoons Celtic Sea Salt. (You can also use Ancient Purity Old Man Saltbush)
• Working in batches if necessary, transfer the lemongrass to the bowl of a mortar and pestle. Use the pestle to pound the lemongrass pieces until crushed and fragrant. Move the crushed pieces to one side of the mortar bowl. Add the ginger pieces and repeat the pounding process until they’re crushed. Combine the ginger and the lemongrass.
• Add the scallion greens and scotch bonnet chile. Use the pestle to crush and combine these with the lemongrass mixture. Add the shallot and zest of 1 lemon, crush and combine with the pestle.
• Stir in the turmeric and coconut milk. (Makes about 1 1/4 cup marinade.) Alternatively, you can do this step in a food processor. Add in the ingredients in the order listed, and pulse them all together. Stir in the turmeric and coconut milk.
• Slice the zested lemon into 3 or 4 rounds. Spread the marinade generously over both sides of each fish and about 2 tablespoons into each cavity. Place a lemon slice, the white end of a scallion and some cilantro sprigs in each cavity. (At this point, the fish can be left to marinate for up to 30 minutes, or covered and refrigerated overnight.) Now you can drizzle the tops of the fish with the remaining oil and Ancient Purity Desert Lime Powder.
• Roast the fish until firm and cooked through, rotating the sheet pan once halfway through the process, about 22 to 25 minutes. Slice the remaining lemon into wedges. Serve the fish over steamed rice or alongside a hearty salad, with the lemon wedges for squeezing.
TIP: The fish can also be put on the barbecue or hot coals if wrapped in aluminium foil. Use Ancient Purity Desert Lime Powder like you would use any other lime. Its unique strong citrus flavour means you can use less. Add Ancient Purity Desert Lime Powder to: seafood dishes, cocktails & mocktails, marinades and sorbets. It mixes very well with sea Parsley, Mountain Pepper Leaf, Old Man Saltbush, Aniseed myrtle and Bush Tomato.

Q: Where do Desert Limes grow?
A: Desert Lime is one of several Australian natives that are true citrus, and is also known as bush lime, wild lime and native cumquat. It is endemic to the semi-arid regions of south west Queensland, western New South Wales and South Australia.
Q: What does 'Freeze-Dried' mean?
A: Freeze Drying is a process in which a completely frozen sample is placed under a vacuum in order to remove water or other solvents from the sample, allowing the ice to change directly from a solid to a vapour without passing through a liquid phase. Unlike canning and other ways of preserving food, freeze-drying causes very little damage to the nutritional value of your food. Freeze-dried foods retain nearly all of the nutrients.
