Carrot and orange purée

Peel the carrots and cut them into small pieces. Put them in a pan with the butter and cover with a little salted water. Cook until the liquid has completely evaporated. Blend with the orange zest and juice.

 

Marinated carrots 

Use a mandolin to cut one of the carrots into thin slices. Cut the other one into small sticks. Cook them separately in a mixture made up of all the other ingredients, until they are soft.

 

Orange emulsion

Mix the orange juice, sugar and zest. Reduce to a syrupy consistency.

 

Put the hot syrup into the blender and gradually add the oil with the blender running. Season with the lemon juice. Add the carrot and chives just before serving. 

 

Breadcrumbs

Bring the water, honey, sugar and butter to the boil. Whisk in the dry ingredients. Bake at 160°C for forty minutes. Cool, turn into breadcrumbs and dry out in the oven.

 

Salma Salmon confit

Mix the oil with the other ingredients. Heat to 72 °C for one hour to allow a thorough infusion. Cut the fish into four portions. Season with salt and pepper and leave to rest for five minutes. Cook in the oil for seven minutes. The centre should remain slightly raw.

 

Arrange all of the ingredients on the plates, sprinkle with the breadcrumbs; as an option, serve with a salad and some orange segments.
