Kingklip with Foglie d’Ulivo

Quick dish - today I “accidentally” bought fish, because I was at the fishmonger for Saturday dinner to pre-order. But without what I never leave there …

• 2 small carrots
• 2 stalks of celery
• 1/2 leek
• 1 tomato, skinned
• some white wine
• some cream
• 3 teaspoons of ground elder nettle pesto

are quickly made into a sauce by dicing everything and simmering it in white wine and cream. The tomato cubes are added just before the end.

• 150 g of pasta (I have to use the pasta from Rome now)

then cook in 10 minutes. These green pasta are really stubborn, the indicated 5-7 minutes are rather Roman - the noodles are then still crisp.

Parallel to this I fry

• 300 g Kingklip fillet

in good butter and season it with

• marjoram
• pepper
• salt

After a few minutes the fish is cooked and stays warm with the plates in the oven at 80°. Done! A rather unambitious meal, but delicious everyday cooking!
