Step-by-Step Professional Preparation

1. Preparing the pumpkin cream:

Peel and chop the pumpkin, onion, and leek. In a pot with 2 tablespoons of Aceite de Oliva Virgen Extra Castello, sauté the vegetables for a few minutes. Cover with water or fish stock and simmer until the pumpkin is very tender (about 20 minutes). Blend until smooth, then add a pinch of nutmeg, white pepper, and Bonsalt   to taste.

2. Cooking the potatoes:

While the cream cooks, peel the potatoes and cut them into 1-centimeter slices. Cook them in water with a touch of Bonsalt until tender but not falling apart (about 12-15 minutes). Drain and set aside.

3. Preparing the sea bass:

Season the sea bass fillets with pepper and Bonsalt. In a nonstick skillet with the other 2 tablespoons of Olive Oil , cook the fish first skin-side down until crispy, then briefly turn it over so it finishes cooking through without drying out.

4. Final plating:

At the bottom of the plate, serve a generous pool of pumpkin cream. Place the potato slices on top and, over them, the sea bass fillet with the skin facing up. You can garnish with a final drizzle of Olive Oil added raw.

This sea bass with pumpkin cream is a dish that will impress your guests with its elegance and balance. Go ahead and make it, and enjoy healthy, high-quality cooking!
