-pour some soy in your beer or whiskey glass
- add some fresh thin sliced bazza
-wait as long as your hunger alows
-then mung away
simple dinner for some intoxicated fisherman

Geez you 2 are getting a bit desperate aren't ya, intoxicated would be the most important ingredient I reckon


Cheers Flicker

gee that's a little more upmarket than a tomato sauce sandwich ..can remember who had that one off the top of my head...

How many of you are fans of semi raw fish? numbas, (i think thats how you spell it) tends to be a popular way of doing it, im curious to know how you do it and what do you mix and match?
Caught a trevally today and this is all i do to knock up a small appetiser.
Basic marinade consisting of- lemon/lime juice, soy sauce, garlic, crushed ginger, salt/pepper, brown/raw sugar, finely grated onion, crushed chilli.
Mix it all up as desired, chuck in thinly sliced fish fillet, meat should turn whiter if white fillet or brown if red fillet pretty much get into it by this stage.

That's a good recipe for Numus Seeker, it's pretty much the same marinade I chuck in the boat in a jar if I do an overnighter but also usually throw in a few chopped coriander leaves and some fish sauce to give it a bit of a Thai twist. The Broome locals over here have an identical recipe they call sesame or seshame which is a derivative of sashimi they picked up off of Japanese pearl divers, it's also known as numus up in FNQ and the Torres Straight islands once again picked up from the Japanese divers and also has coconut in it, I've tried most versions of it and it's all good as long as the fish is real fresh.
MMM I gotta go hunting Queenfish.

hey MS i like how you added abit of greenery for presentation

bl..dy savages!!! If God meant fish to be eaten raw WHY would he have invented batter?????

well abit of addition to the raw barra thread. in the latest over night saga, myself, meter seeker and cam24, hit the bay with salad fingers and gonzo.. a real fff affair.
we only managed one fish but made light work of it. bled, filleted and chilled down fo 30 mins, the fish was sliced up and put in a bowl with some soy. this time the new addition was a kaffir lime. bl..dy beautiful. really set it off. between the 5 of us we hoed down a fillet off an 85 in no time at all.

as mentioned above the main ingredient is an intoxicated fisherman..

but on a serious note... it is quite tasty, worth a try for all you lads out there. i must say the saltwater barra was much nicer than the sushi from the daly earlier in the year...

sounds wicked. i reckon washing it down with that new Calton Fusion(lime floured beer) would be perfect.

forget wine matching to your food, beer matches with everything!

ps
how do we know meter seeker is actually eating the fish and not one of his extra large size boogers?
