Pan Fried Sea Bass


Description

Wonderful sea bass starter paired with sweet white and brown crab meat, fresh radishes and creamy avocado with spectacular results.

Ingredients

4 sea bass fillets, pin-boned, each weighing around 120g
20g of butter
Lemon juice
100g of brown crab meat
100g of mayonnaise
Lemon juice
Salt
Black pepper

White crab salad:
200g of white crab meat, picked
Lemon juice
Olive oil
Dressing
50ml of groundnut oil
50ml of olive oil
1 lemon
1 handful of mint leaves, finely sliced
Salt
Black pepper

To serve:
1 avocado, de stoned and cubed
2 pink radishes, thinly sliced

Directions

In a food processor, blend the brown crab meat with the mayonnaise. Season with salt and pepper and add a little lemon juice to taste. Pass the mayonnaise through a fine sieve to remove any lumps, repeat if necessary.

Lightly mix the picked white crab meat with a little olive oil and seasoning.

To make the dressing, remove the zest from the lemon with a fine grater and add to a bowl together with the juice. Whisk and slowly add the two oils. Keep whisking until the liquids combine. Finish with the mint leaves, season and set aside.

Heat a little vegetable oil in a non-stick pan and place the sea bass fillets, skin side down. Ensure you gain a nice even golden colour before carefully turning the fish. Add a squeeze of lemon and a small knob of butter. Baste the fish well before setting it aside on absorbent paper.

Spread a little mayonnaise on each plate, place the sea bass in the centre with the white crab salad. Garnish with some avocado cubes and thinly sliced radish and finish with the lemon dressing.

Enjoy!
