Ingredients: 2 kingfish fillets (6 oz each), skin-on; 8 oz fresh okra, halved lengthwise; 3 large shallots, halved; 1 cup coconut milk; 1/2 cup vegetable or light fish broth; 1/4 tsp saffron threads; 1 tsp green peppercorns, lightly crushed; 1 blade of mace (or 1/8 tsp ground mace); 2 tbsp ghee, divided; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 small piece ginger (1 inch), minced; salt and white pepper to taste; 1 tbsp fresh cilantro, chopped; 1 lime, cut into wedges

Meaty kingfish fillets braised gently in a silken coconut broth perfumed with saffron, green peppercorns, and a hint of mace. Charred okra and shallots add bitter-sweet contrast. The sauce coats the fish with subtle spice and floral depth without overpowering its delicate sweetness.
