Ingredients

Base recipe for 2 servings. Adjust quantities below for à la carte service, tasting menus, or banquet production.

  • 360 g turbot fillets
  • 500 g potatoes
  • 150 g green tomato
  • 20 g anchovies
  • 20 g Italian parsley
  • 30 g butter
  • 15 ml extra virgin olive oil
  • 10 g garlic
  • 20 ml lemon juice
  • 10 g Dijon mustard
  • 20 g all-purpose flour (for light dusting)
  • Sea salt, to taste

Method

  1. Bake the sliced potatoes with butter between parchment at 350°F / 175°C until tender and lightly golden.
  2. Blend the green tomato, anchovy, garlic, mustard, lemon juice, and olive oil into a smooth and vibrant sauce.
  3. Lightly flour the turbot fillets and sear them gently until golden on the outside.
  4. Finish the fish in the oven for 6 to 8 minutes, until just cooked through and still delicate.
  5. Plate the butter-baked potatoes first, place the fish on top, and finish with the green tomato anchovy sauce and fresh parsley.
Chef’s Note: Turbot is delicate and elegant, so avoid aggressive heat. A gentle sear and careful finish preserve the texture while letting the anchovy and green tomato sauce add brightness and depth.
