Tips:

  • Choose the freshest tilapia fillets. Look for fillets that are firm and have a mild, sweet smell. Avoid fillets that are slimy or have a strong fishy odor.
  • Use ripe tomatoes and oranges for the relish. This will ensure that the relish is sweet and flavorful. Avoid using tomatoes or oranges that are bruised or have blemishes.
