Grouper In Yellow Curry Recipes

GROUPER FILLETS WITH GINGER AND COCONUT CURRY

Steps:

• Heat oven to 225 degrees.
• Season the fish generously with salt and pepper. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high. When the oil is hot, add the fish and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm while you prepare the rest of the dish.
• Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the skillet. Add the spring onion and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the ginger and turmeric and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add the carrot, snow peas and green peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and cover to keep warm.
• Add the coconut milk and 1 tablespoon curry paste to the skillet, bring to a simmer over medium, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until liquid is reduced by about one-third, about 6 minutes. Whisk in more curry paste according to taste, if desired. Stir in the cooked vegetables and heat until warmed, about 1 minute.
• Divide the fish among shallow bowls. Spoon the sauce and vegetables over the fish, garnish with cilantro and serve.

SUPER GROUPER

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Combine melted butter and lemon juice in a small bowl. Brush 2 tablespoons of this mixture on a piece of foil placed on the broiler pan.
• Mix together garlic salt, parsley, paprika and white pepper. Sprinkle spice mixture on both sides of fillets.
• Bake fillets until meat flakes, about 10 minutes. Brush fillets again with lemon butter and spread with mayonnaise. Sprinkle with paprika before serving.

YELLOWEDGE GROUPER WITH SAVORY SWEET CORN PUDDING, OYSTER MUSHROOM VINAIGRETTE AND PETITE GREENS

Steps:

• For the vinaigrette: Heat a medium skillet, and then add the mushrooms and saute in the olive oil, sprinkling with salt and black pepper, until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Add the thyme, garlic and shallots and saute for 1 more minute. Reduce the heat and add the sherry vinegar and honey. Stir to combine. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed, and reserve for plating.
• For the corn pudding: Puree the stock and corn in a high-speed blender. Strain the corn puree through a fine strainer, and then pour into a double boiler over moderate heat. Season with salt and pepper. Stir often; the mixture will begin to thicken from the natural starch in the corn. Cook until desired consistency, and then stir in the butter and creme fraiche. Taste and adjust the salt and pepper, if needed, and keep warm.
• For the grouper: Preheat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the fillets with salt and pepper. Add the oil to the skillet, and then carefully add the grouper fillets; do not overcrowd the skillet. Sear the fish well, while adding the butter and fresh thyme. Cook until the grouper is well seared and just cooked through, 3 minutes per side. Remove from the skillet.
• To serve, plate 4 ounces of corn pudding into each of four 12-inch shallow bowls. Place a warm grouper fillet in the center, and garnish with the mushroom vinaigrette and petite greens. Serve and enjoy!

PAUL'S GRILLED GROUPER

Steps:

• Preheat the grill to medium-high.
• In a small bowl combine the butter, garlic, Parmesan, Essence, and olive oil and whisk to combine.
• Lay the fillets on the grill, scale side down, and brush generously with the melted butter mixture. Close the grill cover and cook for 3 minutes. Open and brush again with the melted butter mixture. Repeat this process until the flesh is firm and opaque, for a total cooking time of about 12 to 15 minutes for this size fish. The last minute of cooking time, sprinkle with the fresh herbs. Remove from the grill and serve immediately with Arugula and Orange Salad.
• Combine all ingredients thoroughly and store in an airtight jar or container.
• Recipe from New New Orleans Cooking by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch. Published by William and Morrow, 1993.
• In a large salad bowl, combine the arugula, spinach, red onion, and orange segments.
• In a small bowl, whisk together the mustard, orange juice, and vinegar. While whisking, slowly drizzle in the oil. Whisk until emulsified and season with salt and pepper.

GROUPER IN YELLOW CURRY

Steps:

• Put the coconut into a blender.
• Cover with water, blend, and let rest for a few minutes. (Hold the top on tight, just in case).
• Heat 2 TBS of the oil in a 12" skillet over medium-high heat until it is hot.
• Dredge the grouper chunks lightly in the flour and cook quickly over high heat until lightly browned, 3-4 minutes.
• Remove the fish with a slotted spoon and set aside.
• Add the remaining oil to the pan and cook the onion over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until very soft and beginning to turn brown, about 10 minutes.
• Stir in the tumeric, cayenne, coriander, pepper, and salt.
• Cook for about 2 minutes.
• Strain the coconut milk and add the liquid to the onion mixture; bring to a boil over medium-high heat and reduce by about a third.
• Add the fish, reduce the heat to medium, and cook for about 5 minutes.
• Add the lemon juice, taste and correct the seasonings, garnish with cilantro and serve.

BANANA-LEAF-WRAPPED GROUPER WITH CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Toast curry powder in a dry skillet over medium heat, swirling constantly, until very fragrant, about 1 minute. Let cool.
• Puree garlic, chopped scallion, ginger, fish sauce, agave, coconut milk, lime juice, and 3/4 teaspoon toasted curry powder in a small food processor until smooth.
• Cut out four 10-by-12-inch rectangles from banana leaves or parchment; wipe leaves with a damp towel. With 1 long edge of each rectangle facing you, lay a fillet lengthwise in center of each, about 1 1/2 inches from bottom. Season each with salt and remaining toasted curry powder, and top with 1 tablespoon curry sauce. Fold short sides of rectangle over fish, then fold up bottom edge. Fold top edge over packet, and tuck underneath. (Don't worry if leaves tear a little.)
• Place 2 packets in each layer of a 2-layer bamboo steamer or all 4 in a stainless steel steamer. Fill a large pot with 1 to 2 inches water, and place steamer in pot. Bring water to a boil, then reduce heat to medium. Cover, and steam until fish is just cooked through, 10 to 11 minutes, rotating layers halfway through if using bamboo steamer. Remove from steamer, unwrap, and blot excess liquid from the leaves or parchment with paper towels. Drizzle fish with remaining sauce. Top with tomatoes, sliced scallions, and cilantro, and serve each on a banana leaf or parchment with a lime wedge.
