Ingredients
Instructions
Prepare the fish
Wash the sea bass, fillet it with the skin on, and make two cuts across the back. Marinate with seasoning A for 10 minutes, then remove the sea bass and coat it with low-gluten flour.
Pan-fry the fish
Heat olive oil (amount not included above) in a pan, then place the sea bass in and pan-fry over medium heat until golden brown. Remove and place in a baking tray (skin side up).
Bake the fish
Place the baking tray into the oven with top heat at 180°C and bottom heat at 160°C and bake for about 12 minutes until cooked through. Remove and plate.
Make the sauce
Take a pot, melt the butter, then sauté the diced onion over medium heat until fragrant. Add the sliced shiitake mushrooms and continue to sauté until soft.
Finish the sauce
Add the white wine, heavy cream, and salt from seasoning B to taste. Continue to simmer for about 2 minutes so the mushroom slices absorb the flavors. Remove and pour over the sea bass baked in step 3. Garnish with the decorative ingredients to finish.
