Directions
Halibut With Saffron Vanilla Cream Sauce,A delightful, easy, yet FANCY meal. Perfect for a romantic occasion! I received this recipe at a cooking class by Chef Antoine Moussali from Andria’s Countryside Restaurant in Edwardsville, Illinois. He suggests this with a side of Sauteed Broccoli Rabe (I have posted that recipe as well).,Who could ask for a faster, easier to prepare rich sauce? This worked great since I was in a hurry and didn’t feel like doing a lot of prep. It took my sauce a lot longer to thicken up than 30 mins on medium low. I ended up having to turn up the heat in order to eventually get it to the right consistency. We both thought the sauce tasted really good—very rich and dessert-ish. However, we were not that keen on the pairing with the fish. The sauce is definitely good, I just need to think of another use for it. Thanks!,A delightful, easy, yet FANCY meal.
