This elegant arctic char with Chinese broccoli and sweet potato purée is a sophisticated high-protein dish that balances vibrant colours with deep, savoury flavours. The sweet potato provides a silky, earthy base with a hint of heat from Chinese mustard, while the balsamic and soy reduction offers a tangy finish that cuts through the richness of the fish. Arctic char, with its delicate texture and mild flavour, is perfectly complemented by the crunchy mustard seed crust and the salty bite of crisp bacon.
Perfect for a special weekend dinner or a nutritious midweek treat, this recipe showcases how simple ingredients like ginger-scented greens and root vegetables can be transformed into a restaurant-standard meal. The use of gai lan adds an authentic bitterness that pairs beautifully with the sweet mash. For the best results, ensure the frying pan is hot before searing the fish to achieve a perfectly crisp, golden-brown exterior while keeping the flakes moist and tender.
