Ingredients
  • 263.4 g sea bass fillet
  • 1.2 tbsp duck fat
  • 0.25 tsp salt
  • 0.25 tsp black pepper
  • 53.4 g pearl barley
  • 60 g shiitake mushroom
  • 25 g tamarind paste
  • 20 g fresh ginger
  • 50 g scallion
Method
  1. 01Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, add pearl barley, and simmer for 25-30 minutes until tender but chewy. Drain well and set aside.
  2. 02In a small bowl, whisk together tamarind paste, half of the minced ginger, and 1 tbsp water to create a glaze.
  3. 03Heat half of the duck fat in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season sea bass with salt and black pepper. Pan-sear skin-side down for 4-5 minutes until crispy, then flip and cook for 2-3 minutes until fish is fully opaque throughout and flakes easily (internal temperature of 145°F/63°C). Remove and rest.
  4. 04Add remaining duck fat to the same skillet. Add shiitake mushrooms, remaining ginger, and scallions; sauté for 3-4 minutes until browned.
  5. 05Pour in the tamarind glaze and simmer for 1 minute until thickened and coating the mushrooms.
  6. 06Spoon cooked barley into a shallow bowl, top with pan-seared sea bass, and spoon mushroom-tamarind glaze over top. Serve immediately.
