Air-Fried Fish Tacos with Pickled Slaw and Coriander Lime Sauce

A fun mid-week meal of crispy air-fried fish, lime and coriander flavoured mayo in a soft corn tortilla with pickled slaw spiced up with jalapeño chilli. If you’re in a hurry, the slaw can be pickled for as little as 30 minutes but tastes even better if pickled overnight.

Instructions

  • 1

    To make the pickle slaw, combine the cabbage, onion, chilli, salt and vinegar in a bowl. Allow to pickle for 30 minutes to 2 hours on the bench top or overnight in the refrigerator. The longer the pickling time the better the flavour.

  • 2

    To make the coriander and lime sauce, whisk all the sauce ingredients until smooth. Set aside.

  • 3

    Cut the fish into 16 pieces about 8cm long and 2cm wide.

  • 4

    Place the flour and salt in a shallow dish. Whisk the eggs and water in a second dish. Place the breadcrumbs in a third dish.

  • 5

    Set the oven to Air Fry, Super Convection, 220°C, for 10 minutes and press Start to preheat. Meanwhile, continue to the next step.

  • 6

    Working with one piece at a time, toss the fish, in the flour, eggs and then breadcrumbs, shaking off the excess.

  • 7

    Place the fish in the air fry basket, ensuring they are not touching and generously spray both sides with cooking spray.

  • 8

    Once preheated, place the basket in rack position 3 and air fry for 10 minutes. Meanwhile, heat the tortillas.

  • 9

    Heat a cast iron skillet over high heat and warm the tortillas, in batches, for 30 seconds on each side. Place them on a plate and cover with foil to keep warm.

  • 10

    The fish should be golden and crisp. If not, air fry a little longer.

  • 11

    Just before serving, drain the liquid from the slaw, remove and discard the jalapeño. Add the coriander.

  • 12

    Place 2 pieces of fish on each tortilla, top with the pickled slaw and sauce.
