Grilled Whiting with Lime and Chilli Butter, Coconut Rice and Rocket Salad

  4. Wash the rocket leaves and dress lightly with the sesame dressing.
  5. To serve, drain the rice and allow to steam for a minute then distribute between two plates. Place the grilled whiting on top, spooning any melted butter over and around. Arrange the rocket salad neatly next to it.
