Ingredients

20 minute MARINADE time

-------------------------------------

1.5 lb small snapper or bream, cleaned and scaled

2 teaspoons green peppercorns, finely crushed

2 teaspoons chopped red chili

3 teaspoons fish sauce

1 tablespoon oil

2 medium onions, finely sliced

1.5 in piece fresh ginger, cut into very thin slices

3 cloves garlic, cut into very thin slices

2 teaspoon sugar

4 spring onions, cut into 1.5 in pieces, then finely shredded

Lemon and garlic dipping sauce, to serve

Directions

Wash the fish inside and out and pat dry with paper towels.

Cut 2 diagonal slashes into the thickest part of the fish on both sides.

Place the peppercorns, chili and fish sauce in a food processor or mortar and pestle, and process or grind until a paste is formed. Brush the paste lightly over the fish, cover and refrigerate for 20 minutes.

Heat the barbecue until very hot; lightly brush it with oil.

Cook the fish for 8 minutes on each side, or until the flesh flakes easily when tested.

While the fish is cooking, heat the oil in a frying pan; add the onion and cook over medium heat, stirring, until golden.

Add the ginger, garlic and sugar and cook for 3 minutes.

Place the fish on a serving plate, top with the onion mixture, sprinkle over the spring onion and serve immediately with lemon and garlic dipping sauce and hot steamed rice.
