PREPARATION METHOD BY TOP CHEF OLIVER RASPER:

STEP 1:

Cook the beetroot in salted water with 1 teaspoon of caraway seeds.

Clean the surface of the young carrots with a kitchen knife and steam them in a little butter with 100 ml mineral water, salt and a pinch of sugar.

Peel the cooked beetroot and marinate with grape seed oil and raspberry vinegar.

STEP 2:

Fry the pike-perch in a non-stick pan until golden brown.

Finely slice the breaded beetroot (Chioggia), the turnips and the radishes alternately and arrange directly as shown in the picture.

STEP 3:

Arrange the steamed finger carrots with the marinated beetroot in the centre of the plates.

Chop the parsley and add the parsley stems to the pan with the pike-perch.

In a second pan, brown the butter and toast the ground black pepper in it.

Season the fried pike-perch with sea salt and arrange on the turnips.

Spread the nut butter with black pepper over the raw beetroot and turnips.

Finally, sprinkle the turnips with coarse sea salt.
