- 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
- 1 tablespoon Butter
- 3 egg whites
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper powder
- Juice of 1 Lemon
- 1 1/4 cup heavy cream
- handful of chopped coriander
- 1/4 cup freshly grated coconut
- 1 Jalapeno pepper, deseeded and chopped
- 1/2 cup chopped yellow onion
- 2 pounds Flounder, cut into 1" pieces
Instructions
Step 1
Wash thoroughly and cut the fish fillet into 1" pieces. In a deep bottomed pan, add 1 1/2 to 2 cups of water with salt, pepper, and half the lemon juice. Add the fish pieces, cover, and let boil until all the water is absorbed. Keep aside and let cool.
Step 2
In a pan, add 1 tablespoon of butter, then add the chopped onion and Jalapeno pepper. Fry until the onion turns translucent. Do not brown the onions. Keep aside and let cool.
Step 3
In a mixer grinder, add the cooled fish pieces, cooled onion and jalapeno fry, grated coconut, a handful of chopped coriander, and the rest of the lemon juice. Grind to a smooth paste.
Step 4
Remove the fish dough to a pan, add the egg whites, and blend on medium-high until the fish dough becomes soft and fluffy.
Step 5
Lastly, add the heavy cream and blend on low for not more than a minute.
Step 6
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Step 7
In the meantime, boil water in a separate pan to be used later for baking the pudding.
Step 8
Heavily grease the bottom and sides of a 9" loaf pan with butter. Sprinkle the bread crumbs, tipping the pan to evenly distribute them. Also, grease an aluminum foil big enough to cover the loaf pan.
Step 9
Pour the mixture into the loaf pan, and bang the pan gently on the counter a couple of times to remove any air bubbles.
Step 10
Seal the loaf pan with the greased foil. Place the pan in a deep baking tray and add boiling water up until it covers 3/4 of the sides of the loaf pan (bain-marie method).
Step 11
Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until a tester inserted inside comes out clean.
Step 12
Let it cool for 5 minutes, then pour off any extra liquid. Run a knife around the edges, hold a serving platter on top of the pan, and quickly invert so that the pudding comes out smoothly. Be very careful while removing the pudding on the platter.
Step 13
Serve hot with vegetables and mashed potato as part of a meal, or serve cold with a sandwich.
