Turbot is a pricey fish, but very tasty. Turbot is often confused with brill. Now and then it is nice to unpack at home, take a delicious piece of turbot.
Ingredients (4 persons)
- 4 turbot fillets, skin removed
- 2 anchovies
- 2 shallots
- 240 gr. black olives (pitted)
- Capers
- Parsley
- 2 tbs. fishstock
- pine nuts
- Olive oil
Prepare
Heat the oven to 200 ℃. Grease an oven dish with olive oil
Peel the shallots and roughly chop them. Place the shallots in a food processor along with the olives, anchovies, parsley and fish stock.
I make the fish stock from the bones of the turbot, but the stock can also be bought ready-made.
Puree the ingredients. Pour the olive oil into the puree until a sauce forms. Make sure the sauce does not become too runny.
Place the turbot in the greased oven dish and sprinkle the turbot with salt and pepper.
Spread the olive tapenade over the turbot fillet.
Place the fish in the oven for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, in a frying pan, fry the pine nuts without butter. Don’t let them burn. Keep shaking.
If the pine nuts start to discolor, turn off the gas, put them immediately in a container. If left in the pan, they can burn.
Serve
Place the turbot on a preheated plate and sprinkle the pine nuts over the fish.
Delicious with celeriac puree, fried chanterelles and / or a pea mousse.
Serve with a white burgundy.
