How to cook fish in a red wine? Learn the best way how you can poach fish. 😋 Easy recipe for everyone:

What we need: • Leek • White asparagus • Carrots • Shallots • Black olives • Olive oil • Salt • Pepper • Fresh thyme • Red wine • Halibut fillet • Butter

How to do it First we are going to peel our asparagus and make sure you do it properly, otherwise it is hard to eat. Peeled asparagus is prepared to be cooked. In next step we cut some carrots and shallots to a small pieces. For a garnish we are going to be using leek, so we have to wash it with water and cut the green part of the leek it into strips. Now we have all vegetables prepared for making a poaching liquor so we mix our carrots, shallots and leek, add little bit of salt and pepper for the taste, also don’t forget a fresh thyme. And then pour red wine into our mixture and bring it to boil. In the meantime we will cook our asparagus and other half of the leek in salted boiling water for 4-7 minutes, depending how thick is your vegetables. Wine is boiling as well so we can put slowly our fish. Than we take it out of the heat and let 10-15 minutes cook, depending on your fish. Asparagus and leek are cooked and now we cut the asparagus into smaller portions (3 little pieces of each), mix them with little bit of olive oil and salt and let them marinate for while. Our leek we cut on quarters and we put the pieces on a very hot pan with a little bit olive oil to give it a nice brown color. Our fish is cooked. It is super soft and delicate so be careful guys while manipulate with it. You can put it in a tin foil so while doing a sauce from the red wine the fish stays warm.
