Jerusalem artichoke purée

  • Add butter and cook the mushrooms for about 5 minutes.

Skrei in ham

  • Preheat the oven to 180 °C.

  • Spread pesto and basil leaves on one half of each portion, then fold them back together.
  • Wrap 2 slices of cured ham around each fish piece and lightly brown them in a skillet with butter for about 1-2 minutes.
