Automatic programmes ‘broccoli’ (Step 1, slider set to ‘soft’) and ‘glazed cod’ (Step 4)

Preparation

BROCCOLI PURÉE

1. Trim and wash the broccoli then divide into florets. Peel and dice the stalk. Put everything on the perforated steamer tray and steam in the X BO (90°C/100% humid-ity) for about 25 minutes until soft. Melt the butter in a pan over a low heat.

2. Squeeze the lime. Put the steamed broccoli in a tall mixing jug with the cream, crème fraîche and melted butter and purée until smooth. Season with salt and a little lime juice and keep warm until you are ready to serve.

COD

3. Mix the sake and mirin with the sugar in a small pan and simmer until the sugar has completely dissolved. Stir in the miso paste.

4. Dab the fish fillets dry with kitchen roll, spread on the miso paste and place on the universal tray. Cook in the X BO (190°C/-100% humidity) for about 8 minutes.

DASHI SAUCE

5. Peel and coarsely chop the ginger. Wash the herbs and shake them dry then pluck the leaves. Bring the prepped ingredients to the boil in a pan with the shirodashi and 250 g water, then remove from the hob and leave to steep for about 5 minutes.

6. Strain the sauce into a pan through a sieve and bring to the boil again. Mix the starch with a little water and use it to bind the dashi sauce.

SEAWEED CREAM

7. Toast the pine nuts in a non-oiled frying pan. Put the egg whites in a tall mixing jug with the seaweed powder, vegetable stock, mustard and sushi vinegar and purée with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually stir in the oils. Season with salt and pepper.

FINISHING TOUCHES

8. Trim the mushrooms, rub them with a cloth if necessary and slice them. Sauté the sliced mushrooms in a little hot oil until colourless.

9. Briefly wash the sea lettuce in cold water and strain.

10. Plate up the sea lettuce. Add the cod then scatter the fried mushrooms on the fish. Pipe dots of seaweed cream onto the plates and garnish everything with the raw button mushroom slices. Finally, serve the broccoli purée next to the fish and pour on the dashi sauce.
