Fig Leaf Wrapped Fish With Saffron Aioli, Figs & Herbs

INGREDIENTS: 

  • 8 large fig leaves
  • 1 three kilo pink snapper (or any other whole fish), gutted and scaled 
  • 1 lemon, sliced
  • 1 tbsp butter 
  • Handful fresh herbs (parsley, dill, thyme, oregano)
  • Drizzle of olive oil, salt +pepper
  • One egg yolk
  • 1 clove garlic, finely minced 
  • 2 tsp white wine vinegar
  • Pinch sea salt flakes 
  • 1 tbsp boiling water
  • Pinch of saffron threads 
  • ½ cup grapeseed oil
  • ¼ cup olive oil
  • 6 figs halved
  • Fresh herbs to serve, parsley, basil, chervil, chives and watercress are all lovely here

METHOD:

1. Preheat oven to 200°. Pat the fish fry with paper towel. Take a large baking tray & cover with baking paper. Lay down four of the leaves and place the fish on top. Stuff the cavity of the fish with lemon slices, butter, herbs, salt + pepper. Wrap with remaining leaves & secure with kitchen string. Drizzle with oil & roast for 20-25 minutes. Rest for 5 minutes before serving.

2. To make the aioli, steep the saffron in the boiling water. In a medium bowl, whisk the egg yolk, garlic, vinegar & salt. Slowly drizzle in the oil, continuously whisking until thick & smooth. Add the saffron and water & whisk to combine.

3. Drizzle the figs with olive oil & grill on the cut size in a hot griddle pan. Pick the herbs, dress with olive oil & serve all together!
