Numus -- Torres Strait Islands

Mum and I both went back for seconds of this light and refreshing marinated fish dish so it must be good :)

Numus Recipe
Serves 4; recipe courtesy of https://www.facebook.com/notes/numus/numus-recipe/351928354841723

Ingredients

4 medium sized white fish fillets
1 onion
1 lemon or lime (finely sliced)
1/2 tsp red and/or green chilli (finely chopped)
pepper and salt
1/4 tsp garlic (finely chopped)
1/2 tsp palm sugar
1 tbsp mushroom soy (I just used soy sauce)
1 cup white wine vinegar

Method

Slice onions into fine pieces and scatter across the bottom or a large, shallow dish. Sprinkle with pepper.

Slice fish into bite sized pieces or slivers and arrange as a layer on top of the onions.  Sprinkle with salt.

Sprinkle finely chopped chilli and garlic, as well as sugar over the fish, then add a layer of finely sliced lemon over the top.

Drizzle over the soy sauce, followed by the vinegar (I used a spoon to scatter them both about evenly).

Refrigerate for at least 30 mins (I did mine for about 3 hours) and toss gently before serving.
