Method

- Let stand for at least 30 minutes to soak raisins with rum.
- Put papaya fruit flesh, sour cream, garlic, chili pepper and lemon juice in food processor and mix until smooth for about 10 to 20 seconds.
- Remove raisins from rum and add to papaya mixture.
- Add 1/4 teaspoon of the rum and coriander.
- Mix with a spoon.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Set sauce aside.
- You can prepare sauce in advance.
- Cut fish fillet into cubes and mix with lemon juice and 1 teaspoon olive oil.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Set aside.
- Remove crust from toast bread.
- Roll out every barked toast bread slice very thinly using a rolling pin.
- Brush the margins of the slices with egg white.
- Place the fish on three of these slices.
- Use also the fluid.
- Cover the three slices with the remaining three to build the cushions.
- Press the edges of the slices to close the cushions.
- Use a knife to remove "excess" of bread.
- Mix egg yolk with milk and add a pinch of salt.
- Brush the cushions very lightly on both sides with egg yolk mixture (but remain about the half for later use).
- Preheat broiler of your oven.
- Heat up olive oil in a pan.
- Fry the cushions in oil when hot on both sides for about 2-3 minutes until golden.
- Remove cushions from pan.
- Brush cushions with the remaining egg yolk mixture on top side and sprinkle with coconut flakes.
- Sprinkle a pinch of brown sugar on each cushion.
- Broil the cushions in the oven until coconut flakes are golden for about 1-2 minutes.
- Serve the fish cushions hot with the papaya-raisin-sauce.
- NOTE on fish: if you can't get King Fish or Mackerel, you can use other firm fish fillet.
- I have also tried tilapia.
- NOTE on chili pepper: if you like it hot you can use more, if you like it mild use less or a mild type chili pepper.
- I have used a mild one here.
- NOTE on serving: as an appetizer this will make 3 servings.
- As a main dish it will make 1 serving.
- As a main dish serve it with rice or a green salad.
- Time to make does not include time to soak the raisins.
