Preparation

  • Peel and cut the sweet potato into slices. Vacuum-seal with the curry, almond oil, salt and star anise. Cook in a cooking bag for 40 minutes at 85°C until done.

  • Fillet the lemon, place the slices in maple syrup and collect the juice. Mix the other ingredients together and season.
  • Arrange the lemon fillets on a plate and place the herring on top.
  • Glaze the sweet potatoes in a pan, cut in half and place on top.
  • Pipe on the cream and pour over the broth.
  • Finish with mint.
