Instructions
Cut the wild Alaskan gindara into even portions and thoroughly pat the surface dry before cooking.
Roast the cherry tomatoes with a little oil and salt until lightly confit and slightly blistered.
Stir-fry the vegetables over high heat with sunflower oil until golden while remaining crisp. Season with salt and white pepper.
Sear the wild Alaskan gindara on a griddle, grill, or Josper oven over high heat, leaving the exterior golden and the interior moist and succulent.
Heat the lomo saltado sauce and add it at the end, avoiding excessive boiling of the fish so as not to alter its texture.
Lomo saltado sauce
Sauté the garlic, ginger, and onion in sunflower oil until lightly browned.
Add the chopped ripe tomato and cook until it releases its moisture and becomes slightly concentrated.
Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and white wine vinegar.
Reduce over medium heat until the sauce is flavorful, glossy, and full-bodied.
Blend or strain, depending on the desired finish.
Adjust with salt and white pepper and, if desired, add freshly chopped cilantro at the end.
Finishing
Serve the wild Alaskan gindara with the stir-fried vegetables, roasted cherry tomatoes, and lomo saltado sauce. Serve hot, with the sauce glossy and not completely covering the fish.
Wild Alaskan gindara is delicate and rich in fat; it should be cooked over high heat and handled as little as possible to prevent it from breaking apart.The sauce should be bold yet balanced; adjust the salt level while considering the saltiness of the soy sauce and oyster sauce.
