- Blanch the remaining cauliflower florets in boiling water and keep hot in a pan.
- Cut the baby gem in half and place into a frying pan and colour on the cut side for 3-4 minutes, then turn over and continue to cook for 3-4 more minutes.
- Pan fry the seabass skin side down until the skin is crisp and then place into an oven if needed for 4-5 minutes until the fish is cooked.
- Finally sauté the chanterelles in a little hot oil and drain on kitchen paper. To finish
- Spoon the puree onto the warmed plates, followed by the gem halves, cooked seabass, chanterelles and cauliflower florets. Spoon around the chicken sauce and serve.
