Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Make the Pomm Puree

    Peel and chop the potatoes and boil them in salted water until tender. Drain and return to pot. Add heavy cream, butter, and salt. Mash until smooth and creamy. Keep warm.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Asparagus

    Trim the asparagus ends and toss with olive oil and salt. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Make the Lemon Beurre Blanc

    In a saucepan, combine white wine and shallots. Reduce over medium heat until almost dry. Add heavy cream, then whisk in cold butter until emulsified. Stir in lemon juice and season with salt.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Pan Roast the Halibut

    Season the halibut fillets with salt and pepper. Heat olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Sear the halibut for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

  2. 5

    Cook the Asparagus

    In a separate pan, add a little olive oil and sauté the asparagus for 3-5 minutes until tender and bright green.

Plating

    Serve

    On each plate, add a generous spoonful of pomm puree, top with the halibut, and arrange asparagus alongside. Drizzle with lemon beurre blanc and serve immediately.
