Instructions

1 Begin by preparing your fish fillets if you have to do it yourself. Make sure to
remove all bones but keep the skin on. Set aside.
2 Set a pot of water to a boil. You will need it for the noodles at the very end.
3 Put a saucepan on medium heat and add a bit of oil. Add in the shallots and a
pinch of salt and stir around. Let get translucent over the next 10 minutes,
then add the ginger with another pinch of salt. After a couple minutes of
cooking the ginger add in the garlic and cook for 15 seconds before pouring in
the cream. Reduce heat to low.
4 When the sauce is beginning to thicken you have to do three things at once.

1. Add the mussels, white pepper, black pepper, and lemon zest to the sauce and
stir it.

2. Drop the rice noodles in the boiling water; They cook for 2 minutes max.

3. Set a pan of oil on medium high. Salt the skin of the dorado and lay the fish
skin side down in the oil. Cook for two minutes.
5 When the fish is almost done you can add some sauce to your plates. Use tongs or
a couple forks to grab some vermicelli rice noodles and twirl them right in the
center of the sauce. Flip the fish and cook for 15 seconds on the flesh side,
then lift and move immediately on top of the noodles on the plate. Rip over some
cilantro and serve!
