COAT & CRISP UP
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the sweet potato wedges on a roasting tray. Coat in oil, ½ the rub, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and crisping up, shifting halfway.
SWORDFISH AFICIONADO
Pat the swordfish dry with paper towel. In a bowl, combine the Asian marinade, the grated Ginger, the remaining rub, 10ml of oil, and a sweetener of choice. Add the swordfish and toss until coated. Set aside to marinate for at least 10 minutes.
AN ASIAN TWIST
In a bowl, combine the sliced Cabbage, the Cucumber matchsticks, the mayo, a sweetener of choice (optional), and seasoning.
FRY THE Fish
When the sweet potato has 10 minutes remaining, place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, remove the swordfish from the marinade (reserving it in the bowl) and add to the pan, skin-side down. Fry for 3-5 minutes until the skin is crispy and golden. Flip, and cook for 2-3 minutes on the other side until cooked through. In the final minute, baste the swordfish with the reserved marinade. Remove from the pan and season.
