Method

Cooking Puppy Drum

  1. 1

    Sear the Fish

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Season the puppy drum fillets with salt and pepper. Once the oil is hot, add the fillets and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Preparing Gigante Beans

  1. 2

    Cook the Beans

    In a pot, combine gigante beans, vegetable broth, minced garlic, olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for about 30-35 minutes until the beans are tender.

Making Carrot Butter

  1. 3

    Blend Carrots

    In a saucepan, combine chopped carrots and water. Bring to a boil and cook until carrots are tender. Drain and transfer to a blender. Add butter, salt, and pepper, and blend until smooth.

Preparing Labneh

  1. 4

    Season the Labneh

    In a bowl, mix labneh with olive oil and salt to taste. Set aside.

Assembly

  1. 5

    Plate the Dish

    On a plate, spread a layer of carrot butter, top with gigante beans, and place the seared puppy drum fillet on top. Drizzle with seasoned labneh and serve.
