preparation
➊ For the watercress-lime oil, wash the lime in hot water and finely grate the peel. Then quarter it and cut out the flesh. Put the watercress in a blender, add the lime peel, flesh, seasoning salt, olive oil and sunflower oil and mix everything well. Finally, mix in the basic texture and set the finished herb oil aside.
➋ Cut the pike-perch into 4 equal-sized pieces. Season with seasoning salt and coconut blossom sugar.
➌ Slowly fry the seasoned pike-perch fillets on the skin side at around 180 °C on the plancha. As soon as the fillets become slightly translucent on the flesh side, add the butter flakes, thyme, rosemary and crushed garlic clove. Before serving, quickly drizzle the spiced oil over the pike-perch fillets.
➍ Clean the pointed cabbage and cut into thin slices. Place the slices on the grill plate and roast slowly, then turn. Cut the Thai chili into thin rings and spread over the top. Finely grind the roasted garlic and pour over the cabbage. Cut some butter into small pieces and spread on top. Add the blackberries and then the olive oil and lemon salt. Now deglaze with oyster sauce and Noilly Prat. Glaze briefly and crisply and serve with the crispy fried pike-perch.
