Curried Sautéed Shad Roe Recipes

CURRIED SAUTéED SHAD ROE

Steps:

• Rinse and drain the shad roe. Put in a dish and add milk. Turn the roe in the milk.
• Blend the flour, curry powder, salt and pepper.
• Remove roe from milk; dredge to coat well in the flour mixture.
• Heat half of the oil in a skillet and cook two pair of roe. When browned on one side, turn and cover closely with a lid. Continue cooking until cooked through. The cooking time will depend on size, from 5 to 8 minutes (very large roe may require 10 minutes). To test for doneness, press down on top of the roe. If they are soft, they are not done; if firm, they are. Transfer the roe to a warm platter.
• Cook the remaining roe and when done transfer them to the platter.
• Pour off the oil from the skillet and add the butter. Cook, swirling it around, until it is hazelnut brown. Pour this over the roe. Garnish the top of each pair of roe with one lemon slice and sprinkle lightly with lemon juice and parsley. Serve, if desired, with chutney on the side.

ERIC'S SAUTEED SHAD ROE WITH BACON-BUTTER SAUCE AND FRISEE

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Place bacon in a medium skillet, and cook over high heat until bacon is golden and just crisp. Remove 2 tablespoons bacon, and drain on a paper towel-lined plate; set aside. Continue cooking the remaining bacon until very crisp but not blackened. Transfer to a fine sieve; discard bacon fat. Transfer crisp bacon to the jar of a blender.
• Meanwhile, in a small saucepan, bring chicken stock to a boil over high heat. Add butter, piece by piece, whisking constantly until incorporated. Add the chicken-stock mixture to the blender, and blend on high speed until bacon is pureed. Season with salt and pepper. Set aside in a warm place until ready to serve.
• Cook the shad roe: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Using a sharp knife, trim shad roe, and divide into 2 pieces, being careful not to tear the membrane. Pour flour into a shallow bowl, and season with salt and pepper; dust pieces lightly with the flour.
• In a medium nonstick ovenproof saute pan, heat grapeseed oil over medium heat. Add shad roe, and cook until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn, and transfer the saute pan to the oven until roe is cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove from saute pan, and set aside while preparing salad.
• Make the salad: In a large bowl, combine vinegar, garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and a pinch of pepper. Whisk to combine. Slowly add olive oil, whisking constantly, until combined. Add frisee and the reserved bacon; toss to combine.
• To serve: Slice the shad roe crosswise on the bias into 1/2-inch-thick slices. Divide among four plates. Spoon the bacon sauce over, and serve immediately with the frisee salad on the side.
