Om nom nom. That sounds *wonderful*, and is going into my recipe file.

Thanks!

Oooh. I love the idea of almond milk. How much of the almond taste transferred to the fish?

The almond flavor was really subtle. It was there, but barely noticeable.

It does sound interesting but what makes it a fish "taco"?

I'm sorry, I guess I was unclear. This dish came out of my decision to abandon the taco idea. The braised fish just wasn't the right texture for tacos, so I served it over brown rice instead...

Ah ... I see. :) I missed that part of the sentence.

If you do decide to attempt the fish tacos in the future, consider laying your fish fillets in the bottom of a baking dish and then pouring a half cup or so of your favourite salsa over them. Bake at 350 F for 10-12 min or until the fish flakes easily and serve inside corn tortillas with sliced avocados etc.

That sounds really god! Thanks, I'll definitely try that
