Puff Pastry Fish Taco

Published on 24 October 2025 at 19:08

Prepare for a taco experience unlike any other. We replace the traditional shell with a light, buttery puff pastry for a delightful, flaky crunch. That perfect pocket cradles perfectly seasoned Basa, known for its light flavour and hearty texture. Crowned with our hand-chopped, vibrant salsa (bursting with ripe tomatoes and sharp coriander), this taco is a soft-meets-crunchy masterpiece that demands a bite.

Ingredients

  • Instructions
  • Grate the zest and Squeeze the juice from the lime.  Beat the egg and water in a small bowl with a fork.

  • Stir the lime juice, lime zest, coriander, garlic and oil in a medium bowl.  Add the fish and toss to coat.  Season the fish as desired.

  • Sprinkle the flour on the work surface.  Unfold pastry sheet 1 on the work surface.  Roll the pastry sheet into a 12-inch square.  Cut into 4 quarters.  Repeat on pastry sheet 2 (for lids)

  • Divide the fish mixture among the bottom halves of the pastry squares.  Brush the side edges of the pastry squares with the egg mixture.  Lay sheet 2 on top of each over the filling and press the sides to seal. Place the 4 pastries onto a baking sheet.

  • Bake for 20 minutes  at 180c or until the pastries are golden brown and the fish mixture is cooked through. 

  • Let the pastries cool on the baking sheets on Wire Rack for 5 minutes.

  • Top these tacos with your favourite fish taco toppings- sour cream, salsa, guacamole, shredded cabbage and chopped red onion.
