Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat oven to 275°F (135°C). Place 4 barramundi fillets on a lined baking tray. Drizzle 2 tbsp olive oil over the fillets, then season with 1 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp black pepper evenly. Roast gently for 25 minutes until just cooked through and flaky.
- Step 2: While the fish roasts, combine 1/3 cup Davidson’s plum jam, 2 tbsp red wine vinegar, 1 tsp grated fresh ginger, 1 minced garlic clove, and 1/4 cup water in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally until the sauce thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
- Step 3: Remove barramundi from oven and spoon the Davidson’s plum sauce generously over each fillet. Garnish with 2 tbsp chopped fresh coriander and 2 thinly sliced spring onions before serving.
