Directions

MULLET: Generously salt the fish on both sides then cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
Combine vinegar, onion, bay leaves, garlic and celery. Rinse the salt off the fish then immerse in the vinegar brine, cover and refrigerate for 24 hours.
Combine the oil with the chilli, lemon zest, SIDS CRAZY LEMON and thyme. Drain the brine from the fish and discard then immerse the fish in the seasoned oil, ensuring there is enough oil to cover completely, then refrigerate.
WHITE BEAN PURÉE: Process SIDS SALT & PEPPER to taste and all the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
SERVE: Grill the bread on a BBQ then rub generously with garlic then drizzle with olive oil.
Smear the bruschetta with the bean purée. Top each with 2-3 fish fillets and serve with rocket and EV olive oil, a sprinkle of SIDS SALT & PEPPER and a bowl of olives.
