Ethiopia: Broiled Fish
Source of Recipe
From Chef Kurt Linsi
Recipe Introduction
Chef Kurt Linsi of the Ethiopian Airlines was chef for Emperor Haile Selassie for ten years. He is one of the world's outstanding cooks. We love his method of broiling fish.
Place 2 or 3 freshly caught WHOLE FISH, cleaned, on a wire rack.
Lower the rack carefully into a long pan of salted lukewarm water.
Bring the water up to a boil slowly and simmer until the skin loosens.
Lift the fish out rack and all and place it directly over a hot charcoal fire.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and, as soon as the fish begins to flake, remove from fire and serve immediately.
If fish appears dry brush it carefully with seasoned oil or butter (see page 227).
