in Steemit Iron Chef3 years ago

Hello beautiful people of the SIC Community!

I will start this post by firstly apologize for being late in posting my entry...I was just so busy the last 2 days and it is only today that I managed to get some free time making my entry!

I just don't want to miss this first round...and such a creative one!!!

I hope the chef will accept and validate my entry!


For the first round of the 2nd act, the chef asked the contestants to create a monochromatic dish...

So I am coming up with a GREEN entry...hope you like it!

Go Green - Fish filet with zucchini scales and truffled peas cream!

Peas cream with truffle oil

Here I simply cooked the peas in salted water and when soft I blended it until smooth and season with salt!

Zucchini Scales

Another easy element of my dish is the fish scales that I created with zucchini slices which are simply seasoned and steamed...

Then I pan fried my fish filet and delicately placed the zucchini on...

Bok Choy / Fried herbs

I wanted to make some crispy fresh herbs...so I selected basil, coriander and mint leaves and deep fried them to keep that lovely green color...

Plating...

As usual... I had so much fun making the plating...freestyle!!!

Started by putting the peas cream on a white plate...

Next was to place the fish...need to be very delicate here or you risk to break the filet...

And complete the plating by placing the different garnishes that I prepared...
