Clean and rinse the beets under cold water with a brush. Make the whole beets with the spices in enough water. Peel and cut into medium sized cubes. Cover with some of the cooking broth and steep for a few min on low heat. For the mashed potatoes, add the still hot mashed potatoes to the boiling milk-cream mixture form and add the clarified strained butter. Season to taste with salt, pepper and freshly grated muscatel.
Season cod fillets with salt, pepper and cayenne pepper. Brush one side with egg white. Place this side in the breadcrumbs and press lightly until smooth. Fry the crumbled side in hot clarified butter, first fairly, then over medium heat until golden brown.
Turn and arrange on the spot.
Arrange the mashed potatoes in the center of deep plates, spread the diced beets with their own juices evenly around the outside, drizzle with walnut oil, and shape the crispy cod pieces on top of the mashed potatoes.
Tip: Put on rubber gloves to peel the red beets, otherwise you will be able to see what you have cooked for a long time….
Tip: Always use aromatic spices to enhance your dishes!
