Sposób przygotowania
Krok po kroku
- 1
Pat the herring fillets dry with paper towels and slice them thinly against the grain into bite-sized pieces.
Około 8 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Chilling the fish slightly before slicing can make it easier to get clean, thin cuts.
- 2
Place the sliced fish in a non-reactive glass or ceramic bowl. Pour the lime juice intended for the salad over the fish and toss gently to coat every piece.
Około 2 min
- 3
Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 20-25 minutes, or until the fish becomes firm and opaque.
Około 25 min
Wskazówka kucharza: This is a chemical cooking process called denaturation; do not marinate for too long or the fish can become tough.

While the fish cures, prepare the dressing. In a small bowl, whisk together the warm water and sugar until the sugar dissolves. Then, stir in the fish sauce, the dressing's lime juice, minced garlic, and optional chili.
Około 5 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Using warm water helps the sugar dissolve quickly and completely.

Once the herring is fully opaque, drain it thoroughly in a colander, discarding all the excess lime juice.
Około 2 min
Wskazówka kucharza: Gently press the fish to remove as much liquid as possible so the salad isn't watery.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the drained herring, sliced red onion, shredded coconut, and chopped mint.
