Pollock with Green Pepper (Abadejo a la Pimienta Verde) a Classic Spanish recipe for a dish of pollock served in a clam base with green peppercorns and vegetables.

Ingredients:

1 whole pollock (about 1.5kg)
2 onions
2 leeks
8 prawns
12 clams
1 tbsp green peppercorns
120ml white wine
3 garlic cloves
2 spring onions
1 tbsp plain flour
water
fresh parsley, chopped
salt, to taste
green peppercorns, crushed
oil

Method:

Clean the fish, remove the gills, scale and wash. Take off the head, fins and tail. Place these in a stockpot with the leeks and onions. Cover with water, bring to a boil and cook until the liquid has reduced down to a very concentrated stock.

Chop 2 of the garlic cloves and the spring onions. Heat a little oil in a pan, add the garlic and spring onions and fry for 1 minute. Scatter over the flour and stir to combine then whisk in the white wine and the reduced fish stock. Bring to a simmer and cook for a few minutes then add the clams and green peppercorns (reserve a few for garnish).

Cook for about 4 minutes, or until the clams open then add the prawns and cook for 2 minutes more.

Sprinkle over the chopped parsley and set aside to keep warm.

Cut the fish into rounds. Season these with salt and crushed green peppercorns. Dip the fish in a little oil then cook on a hot griddle pan for about 2 minutes per side, or until cooked through.

Pour the clam mixture onto a serving dish. Arrange the fish pieces on top and serve.
