Clare Latimer's recipe for
Sea Bass with Garlic and Rosemary
Sea Bass with Garlic and Rosemary
This gives a good crispy skin on top and a ready-made sauce below.
What more could you ask for? I would serve with purple sprouting broccoli and mashed potato.
Serves 2
Ingredients
Olive oil;
Two fillets off sea bass;
Splash white wine;
25g butter;
Two springs fresh rosemary;
Two cloves garlic, peeled and crushed;
Juice of 1/2 lemon;
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Method
Heat the oil in a heavy-based pan, that has a tight-fitting lid, and then add the sea bass skin side down. Fry for three to four minutes or until crisp and golden.
Turn the fillets over, add a splash of wine and allow to sizzle and evaporate slightly.
Lower the heat and add the butter, rosemary and garlic, then cover and simmer gently for a further seven to eight minutes. Remove the fish and place on warmed serving plate.
Add the lemon juice to the pan, season and then spoon over the fish.
