fish pan with
baked asparagus
Asparagus and fish go very well together, like
here in this fish pan. Choose the fish of the
moment. Rather firm white fish or salmon and
anyway, beautiful pieces without fish bones. If
you have time, make your own fish stock. It's
not so complicated and you have fish waste at
hand, making this dish.
The preparation. Make or use a ready-made
fish stock. Make a roux of equal amounts of
butter and flour. Peel the asparagus and cut
them into three centimeter pieces. Cut the
mushrooms into slices and likewise an onion.
Peel a stalk of celery and cut it into slices. Do
the same with a leek and a few carrots. Cut
half a fennel into cubes. Clean, rinse and
prepare the fish and shrimp.
Steam the asparagus pieces for 2 minutes and
continue frying them in a hot pan with sparkling
butter. Put them on the side but keep them
covered warm. Fry the mushrooms In the
same pan. Put those away as well.
Now fry the rest of the vegetables together in
butter, starting with the sliced onion and the
carrot slices. Then add the fennel, celery, leek
and a few crushed garlic cloves. Season with
salt, pepper and dried dill.
Dust the fish fillets with flour and fry them in a
hot pan with butter. Keep them warm for further
use. Fry the king prawns in butter.
Now start the 'assembling'. Dilute the roux
first with hot fish stock, then with a dash of
cream and a glass of white wine. Keep stirring
until the sauce is thick enough. Add tomato
paste to your own taste so that the sauce gets
a light pink color.
Pour the sauce into individual fish pans. Divide
the fish, shrimps, asparagus, mushrooms and
vegetables over it, without stirring. Garnish with
finely sliced spring onions. You can bring the
pans up to serving temperature in an oven at
85°C. serve with toast or boiled potatoes.
