Fish pie with vermouth velouté step 1 Start with the velouté. Heat a knob of butter in a pan, add the shallots and fry gently for about 10 minutes until soft but not coloured. Pour in the wine and vermouth and boil until reduced by half. Add the stock and bring to a simmer, keep bubbling until you have half the amount again. Each time you do the reduction you concentrate the flavour of your final sauce. Stir in the cream and simmer until your sauce is about as thick as double cream, it’s important that the velouté has a bit of body or it won’t stick to the fish. step 2 Heat the oven to 180c/fan 160c/gas 4.

Loin of Pork Dijonnaise Start by scoring the skin of the pork with the tip of a very sharp knife, or Stanley knife, or you can now even buy a special scalpel from a good-quality kitchen shop! Even if it is scored already, it is best to add a few more lines. What you need to do is score the skin all over into thin strips, bringing the blade of the knife about halfway through the fat beneath the skin. Then take off the skin, together with about half the layer of fat underneath – in one piece if possible. Place this on a shallow baking tray, sprinkle generously with salt then put it on the highest shelf of the oven for 15-20 minutes or until it is a very crisp and crunchy piece of crackling to accompany the meat. Meantime, place the breadcrumbs in a mixing bowl, crush the peppercorns with a pestle and mortar or using the back of a tablespoon, and add them to the breadcrumbs together with the sage and about ½ teaspoon salt.
