Preparation steps

1.

Peel and rinse the potatoes. Cut into small pieces. Bring a pot of salted water to a boil and cook the potatoes for about 20 minutes. Drain. Press potatoes through a ricer, or mash.

Heat milk (or cream) with approximately 3 ounces of butter and whisk into potatoes until mixture is a smooth puree. Season with salt, pepper, and nutmeg. Keep warm.

Blanch the tomatoes in boiling water for a few seconds. Peel, quarter, remove seeds, and chop.

Season perch fillets with salt and pepper. Heat butter in a pan over low to medium heat. Add the saffron, then the fish fillets and chopped tomatoes. Cover and simmer about 5–6 minutes.
