Fish tacos with tamarind aioli, green mango chow and tamarind pepper sauce

1. 1

   To make the green seasoning, mix together all the ingredients in a small bowl.

   To make the fried fish, mix the green seasoning with the fish chunks in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Leave to marinate for about 20 minutes and then wipe away any excess marinade from the fish. Place the flour, egg and breadcrumbs in 3 wide bowls and season the flour with some salt and pepper. Dunk the fish chunks first in the flour, then the egg and then the breadcrumbs.

   Fill a deep-fat fryer or a large, deep, heavy-bottomed pan two-thirds full with the oil. Heat to 180C (a cube of bread should turn brown in one minute when dropped in.) CAUTION: Hot oil can be dangerous. Do not leave unattended. Deep-fry the fish for about 3-4 minutes until golden and cooked through. Transfer to kitchen paper to drain.
