Modern FusionMedium

Ingredients

2 Wild sea bass fillets (6 oz each), skin removed
1 inch piece of fresh turmeric, finely grated
1 inch piece of fresh ginger, julienned
500ml high-quality vegetable dashi or light stock
1 small fennel bulb, shaved paper-thin on a mandoline
1 blood orange, segmented (supremed)
1 tbsp premium extra virgin olive oil
1 pinch Maldon sea salt for finishing
Small handful of micro-coriander or fennel fronds

Cooking Instructions

  1. 01

    In a wide, shallow sauté pan, combine the vegetable dashi, grated turmeric, and julienned ginger. Bring to a very gentle simmer over medium-low heat.

  2. 02

    Season the sea bass fillets lightly with salt. Carefully lower the fish into the aromatic broth. The liquid should come halfway up the sides of the fish.

  3. 03

    Cover the pan with a tight-fitting lid and poach at a bare simmer for 6-8 minutes, or until the fish is just opaque and flakes easily with a fork.

  4. 04

    While the fish is poaching, toss the shaved fennel with the blood orange segments and a teaspoon of the poaching liquid in a small bowl.

  5. 05

    To serve, place each fillet in the center of a shallow heated bowl. Ladle a few spoonfuls of the golden ginger-turmeric broth around the base.

  6. 06

    Top the fish with the fennel and citrus salad. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil and garnish with micro-coriander and a touch of sea salt.

Review

The Caprese Salad Skewers recipe was a triumph! I prepared them for a party's barbecue and everyone loved them. The basil was so aromatic, the mozzarella so fresh, and the skewers were the perfect size and an appropriate.
