Need to cook ......

My latest glass experiment went sideways so I decided to cook something. Poached fish with Mediterranean cream sauce.

Poach de Fish

• Prepare the poaching liquid
• In a large frying pan put in 4 cups water, 1 cup white wine, garlic, shallot, parsley and bay leaf.
• Bring to boil then let simmer for 30 minutes. If you cheat with the time the fish will have no flavor.

Da Sauce

• In fry pan put in some butter and crushed black olives, capers, garlic and a bit of anchovy (don't' freak out with the anchovy - just put it in). Sautee on medium heat for 15 minutes.
• In a sauce pot separate yokes of 4 eggs. Place in pot with a bit of water.
• Cook on Medium while whisking till warm
• Add 3 tbsp. butter
• Add 1 pint heavy cream
• Get it nice and hot while whisking
• Add the sauté from the fry pan to the cream sauce & whisk whisk whisk your heart out.  I add a bit of salt and hot sauce too - but that's just me. Cook for about 10 minutes.

Bring the poaching water to a boil again then turn down to medium. Put the fish in and poach till you can stick a fork through it easily - then it be done.

While the fish is cooking strain the sauce through a sieve pressing it through with a spatula so as to get all the flavors out of the veggies. Then put the sauce on warm and whisk - of course.

Serve it up and chow down !!!!!
