Amount Ingredient
2 cup Diced fresh pineapple
3 cup Diced fresh papaya
1/2 cup Fresh cape gooseberries (ground cherries) (optional)
1 cup Granulated sugar plus
1 tsp Granulated sugar
1 tbl Chopped fresh mint or spearmint
1/8 tsp Prepared horseradish
1 tsp Chili sauce
2 x Eggs beaten
1 x Green onion minced
1 tbl Minced garlic
1 tbl Minced fresh ginger
1 tbl Soy sauce
1 tsp Sherry
1 tsp Cornstarch
Salt to taste
Freshly-ground white pepper to taste
3 lb Mahi-mahi (dolphin-fish) fillets cut 2" by 3" pieces
2 cup Flour
3 x Eggs beaten
1/2 cup Macadamia nuts minced
1/2 cup Panko bread crumbs
Instructions:
Instructions: In a saucepan, combine the pineapple, papaya, gooseberries and 1 cup of sugar. Bring to a boil, then simmer, stirring every 5 minutes to avoid scorching, for 1 hour or until mixture reaches jam consistency. Cool. Divide papaya mixture into 3 bowls. Fold in fresh mint to one bowl, horseradish to another and chili sauce to the third. Set aside.

In a mixing bowl, combine the eggs, green onions, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, sherry, remaining teaspoon of sugar and cornstarch. Mix well. Season with salt and pepper. In a large mixing bowl, marinate the mahi-mahi "fingers" in the marinade for 10 minutes. Drain. Season the flour with salt and pepper. Dip the fish pieces in the seasoned flour and then the egg. In a mixing bowl combine the panko bread crumbs and the macadamia nuts. Mix well. Dip the fish in the macadamia nut mixture. Coat well.

In a wok or deep, heavy kettle, heat 2 1/4 to 3 inches of oil on medium-high heat until it registers 365 degrees on a deep-fry thermometer. Fry fish fingers a few at a time until golden. Drain briefly on paper towels and serve with the tropical marmalade.
