  3. For the fish: mix the vegetable oil with garlic puree, chilli paste and zest of 1 lime to create seasoning. Pat dry the lemon sole and cut into 3cm diamonds. Brush lightly with seasoning.
  4. For the citrus mayonnaise: mix mayonnaise with lime juice, dill and chives.
  5. For the salad: mix the avocado with the lime juice, cucumber and coriander. Season.
  6. To finish: heat the vegetable oil in a non-stick pan and fry the lemon sole for 1 minute on each side. Griddle or cook the tacos in a hot, dry pan for a few minutes on each side. Top with salad, lemon sole, dried tomatoes and pickled red onions. Dot with mayonnaise and lime zest, and serve with fresh lime wedges.
