• 1st Preparation: cooking technique, “cooking by concentration inside a sauce” (velouté).
• Pour the measured intense olive oil into a pan, add the garlic, place on the heat and when the garlic starts to brown, add the flour (40 g/l roux) and the parsley.
• Off the heat add the white wine and the fumet.
• Return to the heat and let it boil until it thickens and loses the flour flavour.
• Add salt and add the seasoned hake and let it cook.
• Off the heat add the peas, the asparagus, the boiled egg (optional) and the parsley.
• 2nd Preparation: cooking technique, “ragout”.
• Season and flour the fish.
• Put the garlic in a bowl with the intense olive oil, add flour, a little parsley and the fish, let it cook slightly on both sides
• Add the white wine and the fumet until covered.
