 Fish is always one of our favourites. Serving fish for dinner brings elegance and refinement to the table - don’t you think so? Fish is very easy to cook - provided that you have a good fish shop that sells quality products and if they clean and prepare fish for you, your job will be really easy. Here we combine fish with orange and saffron. The dish becomes colourful and the delicate taste of fish meets the unique taste of saffron enhanced by the fragrance of orange. And of course, extra virgin olive oil will add its touch to the dish. For 4 servings Ingredients: 8 small bream fillets, unskinned 1 orange 1 red onion 2 TBSP of extra virgin olive oil few saffron threads salt, if needed Directions: Peel and finely chop the onion. Finely peel the orange zest and set aside. Squeeze the juice of the juice of the orange. In a large pan, heat at medium temperature the extra virgin olive oil, add the onion and cook for 2 minutes, stirring continuously. Add the sea bream fillets, add the orange juice, cover and let cook until fish is ready - you will need 5 minutes. When ready, add the orange zest to decorate.

Tuna tartare is one of the simplest dishes to prepare…no cooking at all! Tartare consists of raw fish (in this case – normally it is made with beef meat) diced and enhanced with other flavors.
