Ingredients

  • 4 halibut fillets
  • 1 sweet potato
  • 4 langoustines
  • 1 large shallot
  • 6 cloves of garlic
  • 8 Molds
  • 40 g of peeled gray shrimp
  • 100 g butter
  • 1 dl olive oil
  • Bay Leaf
  • Chives
  • 3 dl fish stock
  • 2 dl heavy cream
  • Salt, pepper, nutmeg, mild spices (paprika, saffron, coriander)

Prep time: 45 minutes

1
Preparing the sweet potato - Peel the sweet potato, cut it into small pieces, then place them in a pot and cover with water. Add a bay leaf, salt, pepper, nutmeg, and 2 cloves of garlic (with the germ removed). Bring to a boil. Once cooked, drain, mash the sweet potato with a fork, and add 50 g of butter. Adjust the seasoning if necessary. Keep warm.
2
Preparing the halibut - In a skillet, heat olive oil and 50 g of butter. Once hot, add the halibut fillets, salt, pepper, nutmeg, finely chopped shallots, and garlic cloves. Cook until the mixture is evenly browned, then continue cooking until the fish is opaque.
3
Preparing the sauce - Combine fish stock with a little cream, then thicken the sauce with a roux (15 g butter and 15 g flour or cornstarch).
4
To plate: Place the halibut fillet in the center of the plate on top of the mashed sweet potatoes. Add the sauce. Finish with the garnish: a langoustine, mussels cooked in a marinière sauce, and white shrimp. Add the finishing touches with the shallot, garlic clove, chives, and small pieces of crispy phyllo dough. Serve piping hot.
