19 oz thin boneless firm white fish fillets, cut crosswise into 1/3 inch-wide pieces
1/2 cup lime juice
1 tbsp drained baby capers, finely chopped
1 None fresh long red chili, finely chopped
8 None large eggs
2 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp soy sauce
4 tsp vegetable oil
10 None fresh cilantro leaves
1 None medium red onion, halved, thinly sliced
1/3 cup oyster sauce
2 tbsp white vinegar
1 tbsp brown sugar
None None mixed greens and lime wedges, to serve

1
Arrange fish, in a single layer, in a large shallow baking dish. Pour 1/3 cup lime juice over fish then sprinkle with capers and chili. Cover with plastic wrap and chill for 30 mins to cure.
2
Meanwhile, whisk eggs, sesame oil and soy sauce together. For each omelette, heat 1 tsp oil in an 8 inch frying pan over medium heat. Add 1/4 egg mixture to pan, tilting to cover base. Cook for 1-2 mins, until just set underneath. Flip over and cook for 1-2 mins, or until golden brown and set. Transfer to a large heatproof plate.
3
For each omelette, place an omelette on a flat work surface. Drain fish, discarding liquid. Place 3-4 pieces of fish along 1 edge then sprinkle with cilantro and red onion. Roll up tightly to enclose, leaving ends open. Cut in 1/2.
4
Combine oyster sauce, vinegar, sugar and remaining lime juice in a small bowl. Serve omelettes with sauce, salad and lime wedges.
