Sautéed Wild Alaskan Gindara
Ingredients
For the dish
- 600 g wild Alaskan gindara cleaned and cut into even portions
- 400 g stir-fry vegetables cut into uniform sizes
- 200 g cherry tomatoes
- 250 g lomo saltado sauce
- 35 ml sunflower oil
- 4 g salt adjustable to taste
- 0.5 g white pepper
For the lomo saltado sauce
- 150 g white or red onion
- 12 g peeled garlic
- 8 g peeled fresh ginger
- 250 g ripe tomato
- 80 ml soy sauce
- 40 g oyster sauce
- 20 ml white wine vinegar
- 35 ml sunflower oil
- 2 g salt adjustable to taste
- 0.5 g white pepper
- 8 g fresh cilantro optional
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.
