New Year Dinner Course Part 2

First Course :
Seared Cod fillet on top of sauteed mushrooms and tomatoes.

We up the up the ante a little bit, as the title said we need a cod fillet, parsley and basil leaves, butter, tomatoes, shititake mushrooms and of course olive oil, salt and pepper.
First I marinated the cod fillet with olive oil, covered the whole fillet with oil, sprinkle generously with parsley, add salt and pepper for flavor.Put in fridge for the cod fillet to suck in all flavor. Normally 1-2 hours is enough.
First heat up the pan with olive oil and add in the butter , dont let it burn, once ready put in the marinated fillet. Now searing the fillet means once you put in the fillet dont move it around as cooked fillet can break off easily.Searing means we brown the side without burning it.give or take 4-5mins then turn it the other side and sear it as well.When you sear sprinkle some basil leaves and pepper as well. Once you get that nice brownish side, take it out let it rest a while.
Sauteed diced mushrooms and tomatoes with olive oil over moderate heat and add salt and pepper or seasoning. Arrange the sauteed mushrooms and tomatos on plate.Place the fillet on top. There you go the cod fillet dish. Next up, second course porkchop
