Fish and Marinade

Eggplant Puree

Method

Preparation and Cooking

  1. 1

    Marinate the Cod

    In a bowl, combine grated ginger, miso paste, citrus juice, olive oil, and salt. Mix well. Add the black cod fillets, ensuring they are well coated. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

  2. 2

    Prepare the Eggplant Puree

    In a skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add diced eggplant and garlic, cooking until soft. Add cumin and water, cooking until eggplant is tender. Blend until smooth and season with salt.

  3. 3

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In another skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add chanterelle mushrooms and baby leeks, cooking until soft. Season with salt, pepper, and stir in chopped scallions before turning off the heat.

  4. 4

    Cook the Cod

    Preheat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Place the marinated cod fillets skin-side down and cook for about 4-5 minutes until crispy. Carefully flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
