    Brush each side of the tortillas with a little oil, put on a baking sheet and sprinkle with a little sea salt. Bake in the oven for 4-5 minutes until golden and crisp, then cool.

  • STEP 5

    Top the crisp tortillas with the bream and onion mixture and finish with some salsa. Drizzle over a little of the marinade and serve immediately.
