Ingredients

800 g Snapper fillets
16 slices Pancetta
2 Tbsp Olive oil
500 g Earth gems
1 handful Basil, to garnish
2 cloves Garlic, sliced
½ tsp Brown sugar
2 tsp Dijon mustard
1 Red capsicum, deseeded and diced
1 Salt & freshly ground pepper, to season
2 Tbsp Sherry vinegar

Directions

  1. Wrap the fish portions with the pancetta, bringing the ends to lay under the fish tidily.
  2. Boil the gems until cooked but still firm in plenty of salted water, drain. 
  3. Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in a frying pan, add the gems and garlic, cook for 5 minutes until golden, season and keep warm.
  4. Make the vinaigrette by whisking together the mustard, vinegar and sugar with 4 Tbsp olive oil, add the capsicum and season.
  5. Fry the fish in a hot pan with a little olive oil for 4-5 minutes each side, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until crispy and golden. 
  6. Serve on the gems with the vinaigrette spooned over and basil leaves to garnish.
