RAGOUT OF PEAS AND CHANTERELLES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Trim garlic head about 1 inch from top, exposing cloves. Place on a piece of aluminum foil, and drizzle with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, and wrap tightly with foil. Roast until cloves are soft and golden brown, about 1 hour. Unwrap, and allow to cool to room temperature. Squeeze roasted garlic out of bulb, and mix with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Set aside.
• Tear any large chanterelles into pieces, and reserve. In a large skillet, heat remaining olive oil, and saute leeks with salt and pepper until soft, about 5 minutes. Add chanterelles, and saute until tender, about 5 minutes. Add peas and a tablespoon of water if mixture looks dry. Cover pan, and cook over low heat until peas are just tender, about 8 minutes. Stir in roasted garlic mixture, and season with salt and pepper to taste.

PAN SEARED GROUPER WITH ENGLISH PEA PUREE, CHANTERELLES, SUNCHOKES AND RAINBOW CARROTS AND MINNEOLA BUERRE BLANC

Steps:

• For the pea puree: Blanch the peas in boiling salted water until bright green, then drain, shock in ice water, then drain again. Cook the leeks and shallots in the clarified butter until translucent, then add the peas until warmed. Put the pea mixture in the blender, add the mascarpone and blend until smooth (the amount of cheese could vary depending on desired consistency). Chill puree until ready to serve.
• For the vegetables: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Coat the carrots with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Roast, covered, on a baking sheet until tender. Let cool, and then dice. Peel the sunchokes, placing them in water so they do not discolor. Slice, drain and saute over medium heat in clarified butter until tender, and then chill.
• For the grouper: Turn the oven temperature up to 400 degrees F. Heat a saute pan until hot, then add clarified butter and heat until hot. Sprinkle the fish with salt and pepper, then sear the pretty side of the fish until begins to brown, then transfer to the oven for 7 to 9 minutes. Do not flip or move fish. Remove the pan and add the whole butter, garlic and thyme.
• For the beurre blanc: Meanwhile, combine the wine, shallots, orange juice and thyme in a saucepan and cook until reduced by 95 percent (almost 1 tablespoon liquid remaining). Remove from the heat and whisk in the chilled butter to combine. Strain through a fine mesh sieve.
• To serve: Preheat a saute pan. Saute the mushrooms in some clarified butter. Add the other vegetables and warm, adding a small amount of stock if needed to prevent the vegetables drying out.
