I really enjoyed this fish -- first time I really enjoyed poached fish -- but this was great. Good with or without the lavender. Recipe source: local newspaper which was originally printed in Cooking with Lavender.

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large orange roughy fillet (mine was a little over 1/2 pound)
pepper
1 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons dried lavender
2 carrots, peeled and cut into julienne stripes
3 scallions, sliced into julienne strips
1 teaspoon peanut oil
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (I skipped the liqueur) (optional)

Steps:

  • Pepper both sides of the fish.
  • Pour orange juice in a measuring cup (I used ready-made but imagine freshly squeezed from 2 oranges will be so much better), stir in lavender and white wine and set aside.
  • Heat peanut oil (or use unsalted butter) in small skillet, stirring to coat until tender (5 minutes).
  • Meanwhile in a large skillet, suitable for poaching fish, add orange juice mixture and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Add fish and lower heat to a simmer until fish is tender and flakes with a fork (10 - 15 minutes). Remove fish to a platter and keep warm.
  • Add orange liqueur, if using, to pan and turn up heat and reduce by half. Return fish to pan until heated through.
  • Place fish on plates and top with vegetables, spooning sauce over fish.
