GRILLED FISH THAI-STYLE

This is an adaptation of a traditional Thai dish which uses stevia, the natural sweetener - it doesn't taste as good as brown cane sugar in the original recipe but it is an acceptable substitute when you consider the calories it takes out.

Simple, quick, tasty and good on a fast or any other day.

Cod fillet or any other firm fleshed white fish - 400g cut in half

Vegetable oil - 1 tbs
Fish sauce - 2 tbs
Stevia - 2 tbs
Black pepper 1/2 tsp
Turmeric 1/3 tsp
Chilli powder 1/2 tsp

For marinade

1. Mince garlic and put into small dish

4. Pour over fish and work the liquid into the fish without damaging the flesh
5. Marinade for up to 24 hours but minimum 15 mins


Cook

Pre-heat grill to medium and grill fish on foil on which you've poured a little of the marinade to prevent sticking. Grill for 3 mins then turn over for another 3; turn over for another 2 and once again for 2 - total time 10 mins or until fish is just cooked.
