Ingredients

250 g Frozen fava beans (cleaned will be 160 g)
600 ml Water
2 pinches Fine salt
100 g Potatoes
1 tablespoon Olive oil
250 g Perch
2 pinches Coarse salt
330 ml Light beer
as needed Parsley
1 1/2 Lemon
as needed Olive oil
30 g Almonds

Preparation

Once the fava beans are thawed, you can easily remove the skin as shown in the photos.
In a small pot, place the shelled fava beans, peeled and cubed potatoes, about 600 ml of water, two pinches of salt, and a tablespoon of olive oil.
Cook for about 40 minutes, until the fava beans become soft and the water has partially evaporated.
Using an immersion blender, blend the fava beans until they become a puree.
In a pot, pour the beer, and place another pot on top suitable for steaming, with a perforated bottom like a colander.
Place the perch fillets on top of the perforated pot, season with salt, and add some oil.
Cover with a lid and cook for about half an hour.
Serve the perch with lemon slices, accompanied by the fava bean puree and a sprinkle of chopped almonds.
