Ingredients

  • Lemon juice
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 500 g spinach
  • 20 g butter
  • 500 g cherry tomatoes
  • 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 5 tbsp olive oil
  • Salt
  • pepper (ground)

Instructions

  1. 1.

    Peel, wash and thinly slice the potatoes. Boil potato slices in lightly salted water for about 10 minutes.

  2. 2.

    Wash fish fillets, pat dry with kitchen paper, drizzle with lemon juice and season with salt and pepper. Arrange potato slices in a scalloped pattern over the fillets and brush with whisked egg yolk. Bake in a preheated oven at 200°C for about 10 minutes until the skins begin to brown. Meanwhile, wash, trim and rinse spinach in a pot of lightly boiling salted water, stir until wilted, then drain, shock in cold water, and gently squeeze out excess moisture. Melt butter in a pan and quickly sauté the softened spinach, seasoning with salt, pepper, nutmeg and a splash of lemon juice.

  3. 3.

    Wash tomatoes, halve them and remove stems. Whisk balsamic vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper; taste and adjust, then pour over tomatoes. To serve, arrange tomatoes and spinach on plates and place zander fillets topped with potato skins on the leafy spinach bed.
