Method

  1. Defrost the Gurnard fillets, drain and dry them on some kitchen paper or similar.

  3. Place the Gurnard, skin side down and let them sizzle and caramelise for approximately 3 minutes before turning.

  6. After a further 30 seconds, remove the Gurnard from the pan.
  7. Place the Pea and Pancetta Puree in a bowl and heat in a microwave oven for 2 mins until hot.
  8. Finish by placing the Gurnard atop of the Pea and Pancetta Puree.

Serving suggestion: Serve with roasted Cornish new potatoes, roasted wedges of onion and carrot with garlic and thyme.
