Method

For the Pickled Chanterelles

  1. 1

    Prepare the Pickling Liquid

    In a small saucepan, combine white vinegar, water, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar and salt dissolve.

  2. 2

    Pickle the Mushrooms

    Add the chanterelle mushrooms to the boiling pickling liquid. Remove from heat and let cool. Once cooled, transfer to a jar and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.

For the Sweet Potato Purée

  1. 3

    Cook the Sweet Potatoes

    Peel and cube the sweet potatoes. Boil in salted water until tender, about 15 minutes. Drain.

  2. 4

    Make the Purée

    In a blender, combine the cooked sweet potatoes, heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and nutmeg. Blend until smooth. Keep warm.

For the Grouper

  1. 5

    Season the Fish

    Pat the grouper fillets dry and season with salt and black pepper.

  2. 6

    Cook the Fish

    In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the grouper fillets and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown. Remove from pan and let rest.

  3. 7

    Make Brown Butter

    In the same skillet, reduce heat to medium and add unsalted butter. Cook until the butter turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma, about 5 minutes.

Assembly

  1. 8

    Plate the Dish

    On each plate, spread a generous amount of sweet potato purée, place a grouper fillet on top, drizzle with brown butter, and garnish with pickled chanterelles and a dollop of black truffle crema.
