Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Finn Potatoes

    Wash and peel the Finn potatoes. Cut them into small cubes and boil in salted water until tender (about 15-20 minutes). Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Piperade

    In a skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil over medium heat. Add chopped onion and garlic, sauté until translucent. Add diced Gypsy peppers and smoked paprika, cook for another 5 minutes until soft. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Chorizo

    In the same skillet, add the pork chorizo and cook until browned and crispy. Remove from heat and mix with the piperade.

  4. 4

    Grill the Escolar

    Preheat the grill or a grill pan. Brush the escolar filets with olive oil, season with salt and black pepper. Grill for about 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through.

  5. 5

    Steam the Clams

    In a pot, add the little neck clams with a splash of water, cover, and steam until they open (about 5-7 minutes). Discard any clams that do not open.

  6. 6

    Assembly

    On a plate, place a portion of the Finn potatoes, top with the chorizo piperade mixture, and place the grilled escolar on top. Add the steamed clams around the dish. Serve immediately.

  7. 7

    Serve with Rouille (Optional)

    Serve with a spoonful of rouille sauce on the side for dipping or drizzling.
