Cured Sea Bream, Thai Flavours
Lemongrass and kaffir lime cured sea bream in an applewood smoked coconut milk topped with deep fried Thai basil, pickled jalapeno and fresh finger lime, with Thai spiced crispy potatoes, Thai tarama (whipped smoked cod's roe), and a cucumber and herb granita.
Kristen is Australian-born, a self-confessed culinary magpie who has collected and developed her food style based on where she's travelled and lived.
Kristen: "I've got a Thai-inspired feast for you today. Cured sea bream with Thai flavours of kaffir lime and Thai basil and coriander. With a smoked coconut milk, a cucumber and herb granita, and a whipped cod's roe."
Grace: "I just want you to know, Kristen, I hate granita."
Anna: "Smoky coconut bomb-like sauce. And then the fish, which you've cured, getting loads of Thai flavour. But then the roast potatoes with Thai tarama - I didn't know that I needed it so much in my life."
Grace: "This is a stroke of genius. It is herby, it is spicy, and it's got a good kick of acid to it. I am absolutely blown away." Kristen won an apron.
