Sea Bass Crudo

Simply cured fresh fish the Italian way.
Ingredients
- 300 g sea bass fillets (cleaned pin boned and skinned)
- 30 g olive oil (extra virgin)
- 20 g lemon juice
- 2 g salt
- 1 g black pepper
- 20 g red onion (finely sliced)
- 30 g red and green chilli (finely chopped )
- 8 g chives (chopped )
Instructions
- 1
Slice the fish fillets thinly. About 2-3 mm thick is nice. If you bought shrimps cut them in half length-ways making sure to remove the digestive tract along the spine.
- 2
Sprinkle the salt all over the fish making sure you get it nice and evenly spread.
- 3
Add the lemon juice, also making sure it goes into all the nooks and crannies. This is to ensure the fish gets seasoned evenly.
- 4
If you are using chillies this is a good time to smear them gently onto the fish. Get them nicely spread out. If you're not using chillies then skip to the next step.
- 5
Add a good helping of extra virgin olive oil. Spread it evenly over the fish.

Finally, add the sliced onions and chopped chives. If you decided not to use any of the optional ingredients then you just finish with olive oil and enjoy with a well-chilled glass of Chardonnay.
