    PICKLED FISH

    Serves 6-8

    A delightful, fragrant dish of curried fish layered with cooked onions and saturated with a sweet-sour sauce.

    1kg (21/4 lb) snoek cut into portions

    salt to taste

    vegetable oil for frying

    2 large onions, sliced

    5 cloves garlic, chopped

    250ml (1 cup) vinegar

    125ml (1/2 cup) water

    10ml (2tsp) ground coriander

    15ml (1 tbsp) masala

    5ml (1tsp) turmeric

    2 bay leaves

    4 each allspice and cloves

    1ml (1/4 tsp) peppercorns

    sugar to taste

    Salt fish and fry in oil until cooked. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside in a separate bowl; retain oil. Place rest of ingredients except sugar in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Turn down heat and simmer until onions are transparent but haven't lost their crunch. Add sugar to taste and stir to dissolve. Pour warm sauce and oil over fish, making sure that each portion of fish is covered. Allow to cool and store in a cool place. Serve with fresh bread and butter.
