Snapper in a snap

Total Time ~ 15 min

Ingredients:

• 1/2 lb fresh snapper chopped to manageable size pieces
• 1 tsp ginger
• 1 tbls olive oil
• 1 tbls balsamic vinegar
• 2 tbls red wine
• 1 tbls ground mustard
• 4-5 chopped curry leaves
• 2 tbls whole milk yogurt (optional)
• Salt to taste
• Cayenne to taste

Preparation:

• Mix all ingredients (except the snapped) in a bowl and dip the fish pieces (or if time permits marinate for 30-45 min).
• Heat a non-stick pan and cook the marinated snapper in low-medium heat.
• Cook till the fish flakes easily (~ 6-8 min)
• Boom done!

Serving suggestion:

This obviously goes well with rice, but do me a favor and try it with a load of vegetables. I ate this along with a pound of sauteed mixed vegetables (ivy gourd (kovakkai/tindora), carrots, peas, garlic and onions) sauteed in coconut oil and other spices and it paired up really well.
