Sashimi Snapper with Truffle Oil and Pork Crackling.

We recently enjoyed this recipe at Toko on Crown St in East Sydney. The simplicity of it struck me instantly. A perfect winter meal, everything being in season. I have chosen this as my first recipe of the month because it appeals to me as a fisherman and a cook. My friends and I often go snapper fishing up the coast for several days at a time and one of our greatest pleasures is creating unique dishes with our catch. So now every time we go, I make sure I pack a bottle of truffle oil and a pack of pork crackling, as this appetizer is quick and easy, but tastes amazing.

Ingredients:
* 1 just caught snapper
* Top quality truffle oil
* 1 packet of pork crackling

Method:
Thinly slice the fresh loin of snapper in neat, even peices. Arrange pieces nicely on a plate and drizzle truffle oil around the outside of the sashimi. Top with crumbled crackling.

Note: Raw fish can contain parasites so if this is a concern, freezing the fillets for at least 5 days should kill any parasites. Then just simply slice in a meat slicer while frozen and it will defrost within minutes, tasting almost as good as it was fresh.
