Parsnips preparation
Cut the parsnips and (optional) potatoes into small pieces and place in a pot.
Pour in the stock and season with salt, pepper and nutmeg.
Cook the vegetables with the lid on until soft.
Cut leek
Cut the leek in half lengthwise and wash.
Cut the leek leaves into lozenges.

3. Pan Fish Overview Variants
Great, before you join me in the kitchen, I’ll leave you with some valuable information about frying fish. In general, fish fillets can be divided into “easy to fry” and “difficult to fry”.
This sounds a bit funny and complicated, but I am quite serious. 🙂
The solution: Fish such as halibut, plaice, turbot and sole are types of fish that cook quickly in the pan. If you use the wrong pan or have little experience frying fish, the fish will fall apart.
For the fish mentioned in the above paragraph, I recommend preparing them in an egg coating, starting with fillets without skin.
Fish breaded in flour and egg cooks gently and that is a good idea with these types of fish. On the North Sea coast, fish is served this way in many restaurants.
At least dredged in flour, better still pulled through the egg, fillets of plaice, halibut, turbot and sole come out of the pan and onto the plate.
Panfish Tip from Chef Thomas Sixt
When frying salmon, you can do without flour and egg completely. To be honest, I always remove the skin first because it is not edible. You can dry-fry the salmon fillet directly in the pan with a little oil.
Coated pans have proven their worth for frying fish in the pan. New stainless steel pans also have non-stick properties, iron and cast iron pans have to be baked.
