In the upcoming “Best Of” episode, “Surf N’ Turf”, we tackle both land and sea. Instead of showing you something from The Mind Of A Chef archives, we thought to bring you an exclusive bonus scene not found anywhere else. In this cooking demo, Chef David Toutain cooks fried Merlan, a fish similar to Whiting, for Chef Ludo Lefebvre. Stuffed with bay leaves, he serves the fish with fresh peas, almonds, mushrooms, and spring onions. Most notably, David omits butter from the recipe, while Ludo calls out, “I think he’ll be the first French chef seen not cooking with butter!”
