This week Chef Martin Wyss and cookbook author Muriel Miura visit the show to prepare the following recipes.

This show aired originally in November 2009.

TROUT CAPRICE


For Mushroom Sauce:

* 1/2 pound mushrooms, cleaned and sliced thin
* 1/4 cup white wine
* few drops lemon juice
* 1 chicken bouillon cube or 1 scant teaspoon chicken base
* pinch white pepper
* 1 tablespoon butter or canola oil
* 1 1/2 tablespoons flour
* 1/4 cup whipping cream
* few drops Maggi seasoning
* salt and white pepper, to taste

Place mushrooms, white wine, lemon juice, chicken base and white pepper in saucepan; bring to a boil. Simmer over medium heat until mushrooms are tender and cooked through. Remove from heat and set aside.

In another saucepan, make a roux: Melt butter over low heat, whisk in flour, stirring constantly. Strain mushroom liquid into roux; bring to a boil and add cream, mushrooms and Maggi and simmer gently for a few minutes. Check seasoning; add salt and white pepper if necessary. Set aside; keep warm.

For Fish:

* 8 pieces (2-3 ounces each) trout fillet (or mahimahi, sole, perch or snapper)
* salt, to taste
* lemon juice
* flour
* 2 eggs, beaten
* 1/2 stick butter or 2 tablespoons canola oil
* 2 bananas, sliced lengthwise, quartered
* Mushroom Sauce (recipe above)

For Garnish:

* chopped parsley
* lemon wedges

Season fish fillets with salt and lemon juice. Dust with flour and dip in egg; sauté in butter or oil one to two minutes.

Place fish on mushroom sauce.

Sauté bananas in 1 tablespoon butter or canola oil and place on top of fish. For extra flavor and calories, pour a little brown butter over it, if desired.

Sprinkle with chopped parsley and garnish with lemon wedges.


ROESTI POTATOES

* 2 tablespoons canola oil
* 2 slices bacon, chopped 2 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons chopped round onion
* 4 cups frozen hash browns (grated cooked potatoes)

Mix and pat into round skillet. Brown evenly on both sides until crisp and golden.
