Red Snapper with Vegetables

Peel the shallot and chop finely. Heat 1 tablespoon butter in a pan and add shallot. Sauté until translucent. Deglaze with the wine and the stock. Simmer gently for a few minutes. Then mix with the remaining butter and the crème fraîche, stirring until creamy. Do not allow it to boil. Season with lemon juice and salt.

Rinse the fennel, cut in half, remove the hard stalk and cut the halves into fine slices. Peel garlic and ginger and cut into slices. Fry garlic and ginger along with the fennel in a pan in 2 tablespoons hot oil until golden brown, 5-6 minutes. Sprinkle in the thyme and season it with salt and pepper.

Rinse the red snapper, pat dry and cut into 8 pieces of approximately equal size. Season with salt and pepper and fry in remaining oil in another non-stick pan on the skin side until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Turn fish and cook for 1-2 minutes over low heat.
