Préparation
Prepare the Mango-Avocado Salsa
Cut the mango, avocados, and jalapeño pepper into small, even dice to create a balanced homemade salsa, perfect for serving in tacos. Place everything in a mixing bowl, then add lime juice, garlic powder, a pinch of salt, and pepper. Finish with seasoning of cayenne pepper and summer truffle, then gently mix to preserve the texture of the fruits.
Season the Fish
Place the cod on a plate, drizzle with a bit of olive oil, then lightly salt and pepper. Let it rest for about ten minutes to allow the flesh to absorb the seasoning. This short marinade results in a more flavorful grilled fish while keeping a tender and delicate texture, ideal for a fresh and gourmet fish taco recipe.
Cook the Fish on the Grill
Heat a grill or a hot pan, then sear the cod for about 3 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the pieces. The fish should remain moist in the center and flake easily with a fork. Once cooked, cut it into nice pieces to facilitate taco assembly and ensure a generous bite with each serving.
Make the Fresh Yogurt Sauce
In a bowl, mix Greek yogurt with a drizzle of lime juice, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and a touch of summer truffle seasoning. The sauce should remain creamy, fresh, and slightly spicy. It provides a creamy base that balances the brightness of the mango-avocado salsa and highlights the delicate flavor of the grilled fish.
Heat the Tortillas
Warm the corn tortillas for a few moments in a dry pan or in the oven to soften them and enhance their grilled notes. This simple step improves taco assembly and prevents them from breaking when filled. Keep them warm under a clean cloth to maintain their flexibility until final plating.
Assemble the Summer Truffle Fish Tacos
Spread a spoonful of yogurt sauce on each tortilla, then add the mango-avocado salsa and pieces of grilled fish. Top with some pickled red onions, fresh cilantro, and a pinch of summer truffle seasoning. Serve immediately to enjoy the contrast of crunchiness, creaminess, fruity freshness, and truffle notes.
Astuce(s) du Chef Plantin
For a successful cooking, choose a firm-fleshed fish like cod, pollock, or salmon. They grill well and maintain a melting texture in tacos. Prepare the mango-avocado salsa just before serving to preserve the freshness of the fruits, their color, and the balance of sweetness, acidity, and slight heat. Add the summer truffle seasoning in two stages: a first touch in the salsa, then a hint at the time of serving to preserve its aromatic finesse.
