Instructions
- Combine the Spicy Salsa ingredients except basil in a bowl. Set aside for 20 minutes to sweat so juices seep and the tomatoes soften.
- Season eggplant and fish generously with salt and pepper. Then dust fish with flour, shaking off excess.
- Heat 1/2 tbsp oil in a non stick skillet over high heat. Add the eggplant and cook each side until charred and softened - about 2 minutes first side, 1 1/2 minutes second side. Remove onto a plate.
- Heat remaining oil. Add fish and cook until light golden on both sides, pressing down with an egg flip to brown it evenly.
- Tear basil leaves with your hands and toss through the salsa.
- To serve, place 3 eggplants on each plate, top with a piece of fish and spoon over the salsa + juices. Serve with toasted sourdough on the side.
