Soft lovage-crusted brill with new potatoes
Brill is a flat-fish with similar qualities to turbot. Frances Atkins makes use of the fish by preparing a simple but superb cream cheese and wasabi mix to smother over the top. Drizzle over extra virgin olive oil or a herb-infused olive oil before serving this quick and satisfying fish dish.
