John Dory with raspberry salad

John Dory with raspberry salad

Ingredients

4 fillets John Dory, turbot or sole
Plain flour for dusting
4 tbsp double cream
50 ml (2 fl oz) raspberry vinegar
150 ml (5 fl oz) light olive or rapeseed oil
1 small punnet raspberries
A handful each of flat parsley, chervil and chives
Leaves from 1 sprig tarragon
2 tbsp each of horseradish sauce and cream (optional)

Dust fish in flour then shake off excess. Dip into cream. Heat a little oil in a heavy-based frying pan and fry fish until golden — around two minutes each side or until cooked through.

Meanwhile, combine vinegar, oil and 10 raspberries in a blender and whiz until smooth. Sieve. Combine herbs together and dress with raspberry vinaigrette. Add remaining raspberries. Mix horseradish, if using, with cream and two tbsp water. Serve fish with the dressed leaves and horseradish cream, if using.
