Fresh turbot cooked in Dome by Chris Roberts, aka @flamebaster. Charred over wood-fire for ultimate flavor.
Step 1:
Drizzle the turbot with a little olive oil and season well with sea salt, making sure to season inside the gills. Flip the fish over and repeat with the other side..
Step 2:
Heat your Gozney oven to 390°C / 730°F with a medium flame and cook the turbot for around 45 minutes, either in a fish cage or on a baking tray. Shake the fish stock spray ingredients together in a spray bottle and spray the turbot every few minutes while cooking. (If using wood, the heat will drop to around 300°C / 570°F while you cook which should give you a perfectly cooked fish by the end. If cooking with gas, you will need to drop the flame to allow the heat to reduce a little).
Step 3:
When the turbot is just cooked through and has beautifully crispy edges, remove from the oven and set it to one side to rest.
Step 4:
Heat your Gozney oven to 390°C / 730°F with a high flame. Slice the fennel and add to a cold pan before drizzling with a little olive oil. Cook for 10-15 minutes until charred on the edges. Squeeze over the juice of a lemon and season with salt before placing in a bowl and setting to one side.
Step 5:
Prepare and cook the flatbreads.
Step 6:
Heat the Gozney to 390°C / 730°F with a high flame, add the dehydrated shrimp and butter to a small cast iron dish and cook in your Gozney oven for around 5 minutes until the butter has melted and the shrimp are fragrant. Spoon the shrimp butter over the flatbreads and scatter over the chopped parsley.
Step 7:
Serve the turbot on a platter and liberally spray with the fish stock spray before topping with the pickled cockles, chopped tarragon and a few charred lemon halves. Serve with the charred fennel and flatbreads.
