Allergens are marked in bold

Preheat the oven to 180 °C CircoTherm®.

Peel the kiwis and dice finely. Wash the apple and dice finely. Mix these together in a small bowl and pour over the lemon juice.

Did you know: in addition to being a tasty accompaniment for char, lemon juice prevents the apples and kiwi from turning brown.

Crush the garlic, chop the shallots finely and add to the mixture. Finely chop the fresh parsley and mix it with the fruits. Finally, season the fruit tartar with salt and pepper.

Tip: For a bit more sweetness, add a little honey to the tartar.

Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper and brush lightly with olive oil. Place the arctic char on the sheet (if you take fillets skin side down) cover with the kiwi-apple tartar and drizzle with olive oil.

Fold the paper, sealing the arctic char into an airtight parcel and cook for 26–30 minutes (if required, allow a further 5 minutes per 450g of fish) in the preheated oven.

Once cooked, serve the char on a bed of roasted vegetables.

Tip: This Arctic char recipe pairs particularly well with blistered cherry tomatoes.

It is highly prized by chefs for its aromatic flavour. It has firm, low-fat meat. Arctic char have only a few bones, which are also very easy to remove. Arctic char can be steamed, grilled, fried or smoked.
