Instructions:

Fillet, scale and wash the pike-perch. Score the skin side so it does not bulge during frying. Set aside.

Once garnishes are made, season skin side of walleye and sear until hot. Reduce heat and allow to cook. As soon as the fish shows only a raw spot on the upper side, turn it briefly.

For the Jerusalem artichoke puree, cut the Jerusalem artichoke into coarse pieces and roast in sufficient oil. Keep loosening the dregs with a dash of cognac and Madeira.

Once the Jerusalem artichoke is roasted golden brown, deglaze with broth and simmer until soft. Blend with butter, salt and a little pepper until you get a creamy consistency.

For the date chutney, simmer the dates soaked in cranberry juice until soft and season with a chopped chili pepper and salt. Once the juice is almost cooked off, the chutney is ready.

For the spinach leaves, finely dice the shallots, sauté in butter and toss through the spinach.

Serve the roasted pike-perch on roasted Jerusalem artichoke puree with spinach leaves and date chutney.

Preparation Tip:

Instead of the date chutney, a plum or mango chutney also fits perfectly.
