SZECHUAN CURED SEA BASS WITH KOHLRABI, TOMATO AND PASTIS DRESSING For the salt-baked kohlrabi 1 kohlrabi 150g rock salt 160g flour 60g water 1 egg 2 tbsp fennel seeds 2 tbsp chopped fennel tops For the cured seabass 1 fillet wild seabass 300g table salt 1 tsp Szechuan pepper 1 lemon. zested For the tomato and pastis dressing 100g caster sugar 100ml sherry vinegar 200ml tomato water 60ml olive oil 50ml pastis For the horseradish creme fraiche 100g creme fraiche 1/2 tsp fresh horseradish

Start by mixing all of the ingredients together for the salt crust in a stand mixer. Once everything is combine into a smooth dough, allow it to rest in the fridge for 30 minutes.

While the dough is resting, take the skin off the seabass, rub lemon zest and Szechuan pepper on the skin and cover with salt. Allow this to cure for 30 minutes. Then rinse off thoroughly.

Take your salt dough out of the fridge, then roll it out with a rolling pin to about 1cm thick. Then, cover the kohlrabi completely, and put it in the oven at 190 degrees. You want the internal temperature of the kohlrabi to reach 90-95 degrees. Once it has reached this temperature, take it out of the oven and allow it to cool down while still inside the salt crust.

Next, blend your tomatoes with a pinch of salt until they turn into a puree. Remove them from the blender, and squeeze the liquid out through a cloth to have only the tomato water remaining.

Then, in a medium size saucepan, add your sugar and turn the heat on to a medium level. Once the sugar is a golden brown, deglaze with the tomato liquor, vinegar and pastis. Allow it to reduce by half, and the let it cool down. Once cool, place in a bottle with the oil and shake to make the dressing thick.

For the horseradish creme fraiche, use a fine zester and grate the fresh horseradish into the creme fraiche, and mix thoroughly.

CARROT AND ORANGE CUPCAKES Makes 12 175g light soft brown sugar 100g wholemeal self-raising flour 100g self-raising flour 1 tsp bicarbonate of soda 2 tsp mixed spice Zest of 1 orange 2 large free-range eggs 150ml sunflower oil 200g carrots For the fresh orange buttercream: 250g slightly salted butter 500g icing sugar Zest of 1 orange 2 tbsp orange juice

Preheat oven to and line a 12-hole muffin tin with large cupcake cases.

Grate the carrots using a large hole grater before wrapping tightly in food-grade muslin and squeezing out the excess liquid.

In a large mixing bowl or stand mixer, combine your dry ingredients (sugar, flours, bicarbonate of soda, mixed spice and orange zest) and mix thoroughly.

Lightly the beat the eggs in a separate jug, before adding these, the sunflower oil and the grated carrot to the dry ingredients, mixing by hand until thoroughly combined.

Divide the mixture evenly between the cupcake cases and bake at the top of the oven for around 25-27 minutes (until the mixture stops bubbling or ‘singing’).

Allow the cupcakes to cool in the tin for around five minutes, before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

While your cakes are cooling, make your buttercream. Begin by creaming your butter until pale and smooth. Add in the icing sugar, a little at a time, ensuring each addition is fully incorporated before adding the next – the orange juice can be added at this point if the mixture is too stiff to work with.

Finally, add the orange zest and mix through thoroughly.

When your cakes are fully cooled, use a piping bag with an open star tip to pipe a swirl of buttercream onto each cupcake, before decorating with a sprinkle of freshly chopped pecans. Once the buttercream has set, store in an airtight container for up to three days at room temperature.
