Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Boil the potatoes until fork-tender. Drain, mash, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Form into patties and fry in olive oil until golden brown on both sides.

  2. 2

    Roast the Tomatoes

    Halve the tomatoes and drizzle with olive oil, salt, and pepper. Roast in a preheated oven at 400°F (200°C) for about 20 minutes until caramelized.

Cooking

  1. 3

    Sauté the Flounder

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season flounder with salt and pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through and golden.

  2. 4

    Prepare the Asparagus Salad

    Blanch asparagus in boiling water for 2-3 minutes until tender-crisp. Drain and toss with lump crab, lemon zest, and chopped chervil.

  3. 5

    Make the Beurre Blanc

    In a small saucepan, combine white wine and simmer until reduced by half. Stir in heavy cream and simmer until thickened. Remove from heat and whisk in butter until emulsified.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    On each plate, place a serving of the fried mashed potatoes. Top with sautéed flounder, the asparagus salad, and drizzle with roasted tomato beurre blanc.
