British Food

Steak Fish
Recipe contributed by my wife Judy Perin
Ingredients
  • 2 pounds of fresh steak fish
  • Flour
  • Salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
Mix the flour with salt and pepper and set aside. Prepare fish to be cooked by skinning, beheading and de-boning. Place on a towel and pat dry. Dredge the steak fish in the flour mixture and shake off excess flour. Set on a platter and let stand for a few minutes. Heat frying pan oil. Once the oil is hot enough place steak fish in hot oil mixture. Fry about 5 minutes on one side until golden brown. Use a spatula to carefully turn the fish. Cook 3 to 5 more minutes longer, taking care not to overcook. Remove from oil and place on plate. Serve warm with fresh lemon wedges on the side.

This is the new menu of some restaurant. Smeels good. Chef David Holben,  will help us to try to make the recipe below.  Follow the steps and we can get the desired results. Step by step will help you .. Remember do not skip any steps there. Let's try it.
Made with:
Nueske’s Applewood Smoked Bacon
Appetizer Serves 4
Ingredients:
4 each Shrimp U7, (peeled and deveined with tail on)
4 Slices Applewood Smoked Bacon (cut in half)
1 tspn. Course Ground Pepper
Procedure:
Wrap the shrimp with one slice of bacon and secure with a tooth pick. Season with salt and coarse black pepper.
For the Shrimp Sauce
1/4 cup Olive Oil
2 each Interior Lobster Heads (split and cut into 6 pieces)
1 qt. Shrimp Shells
1/2 cup Shallots (cut in small dice)
1/4 cup Paprika
1/4 cup Tomato Paste
4 cups White Wine
1/4 cup Red Ruby Port
2 cups Water
1 qt Heavy Cream
TT Salt, Pepper, Cayenne and Brandy
3 tbls. Butter (unsalted)
Procedure:
1. Sear the lobster heads and shrimp shells in the olive oil in a hot stainless steel pan. Being careful not to brown the lobster heads, add the shallots and cook until they are tender. Then add the paprika being careful not to burn it or it will turn bitter. Add the tomato paste and cook slowly for about 10 to 15 minutes.
2. Deglaze with the wines and let reduce until almost dry. Add the water and cream, then cook slowly for 30 minutes. Purée in the blender and strain through a fine sieve.
3. Season with salt, pepper, brandy and cayenne to taste. Blend the sauce with 3 TBL of butter in the blender. Preheat oven to 350 degrees
For the Potatoes
2 each Idaho (60 count bakers)
2 tbls. Olive Oil
1 tbls. Kosher Salt
10 Garlic Cloves
1 tbls. Sugar
2 tbls. Butter
1/4 cup Sour Cream
2 tbls. Butter
TT Salt and Pepper
Procedure:
1. Place the garlic in a small sauté pan and barely cover with water. Add one tablespoon of butter and one tablespoon of sugar. Cook slowly until the liquid is absorbed and the garlic is tender. If the garlic is not soft, add a little more water. Let the garlic begin to caramelize and deglaze with the wine, and remove from the stove.
2. Rub the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with kosher salt. Bake at 350 degrees for approximately one hour until tender when squeezed. Let cool for one hour. Cut the potato in half crosswise. Cut a small amount off of each end so they will stand up. Scoop out the interior of the potato with a small spoon making sure not to pierce a hole in the bottom. Smash the potato pulp with the garlic, sour cream, butter, salt and pepper. Fill the potato shells with the purée 3/4 full. Set aside.
3. Grill the shrimp over a mesquite grill until the shrimp is cooked through and the bacon is crispy, about three to four minutes on each side.
For the Cheddar Sauce
1 1/2 cups Béchamel
4 oz. Sharp White English Cheddar Cheese
1 tspn. Worcestershire
Procedure:
1. Bring the béchamel to a boil and stir in the cheddar and worcestershire.
2. Place the stuffed potatoes in the oven until hot. On a warm plate place the potato in the center. Ladle about 2 oz of lobster sauce inside the potato. Surround the potato with the cheddar sauce. Place the shrimp inside the potatoes with the tails sticking out.
3. Arrange the crispy plantains and the chives in the center. Sprinkle with the diced tomato.
