Ingredients

  • 800 g fish fillet (e.g., cod or haddock)
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tbsp light soy sauce
  • Salt
  • Pepper (freshly ground)
  • 12 beautiful Swiss chard leaves
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 50 ml dry vermouth (Noilly Prat)
  • 125 ml dry white wine
  • 1 lemon (juice and grated zest, untreated)
  • 70 g cold butter

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Whisk together lemon juice, soy sauce, salt, and pepper; marinate the fish in this mixture.

  2. 2.

    Trim and wash the Swiss chard. Cut off stems and set aside for another use.

  3. 3.

    Briefly blanch the Swiss chard leaves in boiling salted water, shock with ice water, and lay them out on a kitchen towel to dry.

  4. 4.

    Cut the fish fillet into 12 pieces. Brush each leaf with some of the marinade. Place a fish piece in the center of each leaf, roll up, and secure with a toothpick. In a roasting pan, brown the fish rolls all around in hot butter. Deglaze with vermouth and wine. Cover and bake at 200°C for about 20 minutes.

  5. 5.

    Remove the fish rolls and keep covered warm. Pour the cooking liquid into a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Season with lemon juice, zest, salt, and pepper; taste. Beat cold butter in pieces into the sauce, then plate the fish rolls with the sauce on top. Serve with rice.
