HERB CRUST

SALT AND VINEGAR SAUCE

To make the vinegar sauce: Combine the vinegar's and white wine in a saucepan and boil until the liquid has reduced by half. Add the cream and boil again to reduce until you have about 180ml left. Now put in the butter, a cube at a time, whisking each piece until it melts before adding the next. Don't let the sauce boil or seperate. Finally, stir in the chives to taste - the flavour should be quite sharp - and correct the seasoning.

Take the sauce off the heat and keep it warm.

Meanwhile make the herb crust. Blend all the ingredients together and set aside.

In a pan seal the brill in olive oil. Spoon the crust mixture over each piece of brill and place in a hot oven at 180?C/350?F/gas mark 4 until crust is crispy and the fish is cooked (about 2-3 minutes.

Serve the brill on a plate and spoon over the salt and vinegar sauce.
