Preparation steps

1.

Coarsely crush the mustard seeds in the mortar. Halve lemon and squeeze juice. Fill a bowl with water and stir in half the lemon juice. Brush the black salsifies, peel them, cut them into coarse pieces and place them in the lemon water until all the sticks are processed.

2.

Wash, clean and cut the carrots into large pieces. Peel shallots, cut 2 into slices, dice the rest finely and put aside. Wash thyme and shake dry.

3.

Heat olive oil in a pan. Add vegetables and fry for 2-3 minutes. Put the vegetables in an ovenproof dish, season with mustard seeds, salt and pepper. Cover with thyme. Pour on white wine and vegetable stock and bake in a preheated oven at 390°F for 15 minutes.

4.

Meanwhile, wash the cod, pat dry and divide into 4 equal pieces. Grate the parmesan finely. In a bowl, mix diced shallots, parmesan, mustard and almonds. Season cod with salt, pepper and lemon juice. Spread the mustard-almond mixture evenly over the fish.

5.

Place the cod on the vegetables and cook for 15 minutes together with the vegetables. Remove, arrange cod with mustard-almond crust and oven vegetables on plates and serve.
