1 tbsp lime juice
1/4 tsp salt

TO SERVE

Method
Combine rice flour, cumin, ground coriander, paprika and salt in a shallow dish.
Add fish pieces a few at a time, toss to coat, shake off any excess and place on a clean plate. If not using at once, chill for up to 4 hours until needed.
Heat oil in a large heavy-based frypan.
Add fish in a single layer (make sure you don’t overcrowd the pan) and cook over a high heat until golden and cooked through (1-2 minutes each side).
The flesh should flake easily when skewered.
SALSA
To make the Salsa, combine all the ingredients in a small bowl.
To serve, top tortillas with fish, cabbage and salsa, then drizzle with mayo.
Serve with coriander leaves and lime cheeks or wedges.
