Marinated Snapper Salad
Fish is marinated in lime or lemon juice and the acid turns the fish white and opaque so that it looks like cooked fish.l have used this recipe with many kinds of fish and found that the best results were with snapper, red fish and flat head, but any fish with delicate flavour is suitable.

Brush with some of the melted butter and sprinkle with half the grated cheese. Cut rectangle into 3 equal strips lengthways and roll up each strip like a Swiss roll, starting at the long end. Cut each long roll into 3 pieces, so you have 9 pieces in all. Roll each piece with hands on the board until as thin as a pencil, then form into snail.like coils or twists.
