Steps for the cod meunière by Valentin Vasseur & Léo Barbenson
-
Soubise: In a saucepan, gently fry the minced garlic and pink onions with a little butter, a sprig of thyme and cover. After about 30 min. cooking time (there should be a slight browning), add the cream and reduce until thickened. Blend, adjust seasoning and keep warm for serving.
-
Buckwheat stew: Brown the diced smoked bacon in a saucepan. Add the kasha and 40 cl of stock (or water). Bring to the boil, stop cooking and leave covered (the buckwheat will absorb the liquid).
-
Spring onions and cod: Cut the cod into 4 nice steaks. Halve the spring onions and grill in a non-stick pan with a drizzle of olive oil. Once nicely grilled, add the cod steaks and cook for 1 min on each side. Add a knob of butter and cook in the oven at 180°C for 5 to 10 min, depending on the thickness of the cod.
-
Presentation: Remove from the oven, add a drizzle of lemon juice and arrange to taste.
