Step by step recipe

Stage 1 - 15 min.

Wash, peel and cut 2 carrots and 2 turnips into small sticks (julienne).

Stage 2 - 3 min.

Wash 100 g mange-tout peas.

Stage 3 - 5 min.

Cut into small pieces.

Stage 4 - 20 min.

Prepare ½ green cabbage, raw.

Stage 5 - 15 min.

In a large pan boil about 2 litres water, add 2 tablespoons coarse salt.

Stage 6 - 3 min.

Put in carrots, bring back to the boil, and cook for about 2 or 3 minutes until the sticks are soft.

Stage 7 - 3 min.

Remove carrots from boiling water, and put them in cold water.

Stage 8 - 3 min.

When they have cooled completely, drain and set aside.

Stage 9 - 25 min.

Continue like this for all the vegetables, without changing cooking water, which is becoming the vegetable stock for cooking the fish.

Set vegetables aside.

Stage 10 - 3 min.

Wash 1 piece fish, it's not necessary to remove skin and bones now, that will be much easier when fish is cooked.

Stage 11 - 40 min.

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.

Stage 12 - 10 min.

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.

Stage 13 - 2 min.

Melt 30 g butter in a large pan.

Stage 14 - 5 min.

Pour in vegetables, heat through thoroughly stirring round from time to time, then add 200 ml cream.

Stage 15 - 2 min.

Add fish.

Stage 16 - 2 min.

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.
