  •  
  • Ingredients
  • 4 servings
  • 200 g American potatoes (orange flesh) boiled and blended
  • 5 g lemongrass
  • 50 g clarified butter
  • 1 whole trout to fillet
  • 20 g Mandarin panettone powder
  • Vinegar pureed in centrifuge
  • 1 apple
  • Infusion of apple and sorrel
  • 1 fennel
  • White balsamic vinegar to taste
  • Fennel oil
 
Directions
The day before, peel and slice an apple, vacuum-pack it with the sorrel juice and leave it to infuse overnight.
Fillet the trout to obtain 4 portions that will be vacuum-packed with a little fish stock and cooked at a low temperature of 54°C for 10 minutes.
Peel the American potato, cut into cubes and put into boiling water with a pinch of salt and the lemongrass cut into rounds; cook until the pulp becomes soft. Cut the fennel into thin strips and then reduce it to a very fine chop.
When the trout fillet is ready, remove it from the bag, trim it and cut out two portions of fillet; sprinkle them with the Mandarin Panettone powder and bake for 2 minutes at 180 °C.
In the meantime blend the potato puree, add the clarified butter and a pinch of salt. Remove the apple slices from the cold infusion and shape them into rounds with a pastry cutter.
For the composition of the dish create an emulsion with the cooking liquid of the fillet adding a few drops of white balsamic vinegar. Chop the trout, add the apple, the mashed potatoes, the trout emulsion, the fennel, the fennel oil, a pinch of salt and the sorrel.
Bon appetit!
