Step by step recipe:
Wash, peel and cut 2 carrots and 2 turnips into small sticks (julienne). | ![]() |
Wash 100 g mange-tout peas. | ![]() |
Cut into small pieces. | ![]() |
Cut ½ white cabbage into small strips, wash and dry them. | ![]() |
In a large pan boil about 2 litres water, add 2 tablespoons coarse salt. | ![]() |
Put in carrots, bring back to the boil, and cook for about 2 or 3 minutes until the sticks are soft. | ![]() |
Remove carrots from boiling water, and put them in cold water. | ![]() |
When they have cooled completely, drain and set aside. | ![]() |
Continue like this for all the vegetables, without changing cooking water, which is becoming the vegetable stock for cooking the fish. Set vegetables aside. | ![]() |
Wash 1 piece fish, it's not necessary to remove skin and bones now, that will be much easier when fish is cooked. | ![]() |
Put fish into the vegetables broth, over a low heat. Cook gently, without boiling, just barely simmering, until it becomes opaque (about 40 minutes). A better method: cook until internal temperature reaches 70°C or 158°F (an electronic thermometer is useful). Once at this temperature, the fish is cooked, and longer or hotter cooking serves no purpose. | ![]() |
When fish is cooked, you can now easily remove skin, bones and other bits to keep only the very best of flesh. Note: Up to this point everything can be prepared in advance, like the day before. | ![]() |
Melt 30 g butter in a large pan. | ![]() |
Pour in vegetables, heat through thoroughly stirring round from time to time, then add 200 ml cream. | ![]() |
Add fish. | ![]() |
Mix well, season, and serve as soon as the mixture is nice and hot. | ![]() |
Remarks:
You can use any kind of fish for this recipe, but it's a good opportunity to use cheaper kinds, and the fish can be prepared beforehand.If you don't wish to use cream, it's not essential.
