ROUILLE
Use your blunt blade for this recipe.
At step 1 mill for a little longer if your almonds aren't fine enough after 15 seconds.
At step 4 and step 5 attach the butterfly and use 40°C or 105°F if you're using a Supercook.
BISQUE
Use your blunt blade for this recipe.
At step 7 use ST temp and speed 3 if using an Intelli, popping a tea towel over the steamer. If using a Supercook you'll need to use 130°C or 270°F and speed 4.
At step 10 SLOWLY increase the speed from speed 4 to speed 9 for 1 minute.

Instructions
- Prepare seafood and set aside, retaining prawn heads. It is better if your seafood is brought to room temperature before beginning.

- Insert simmering basket and put reserved prawn heads into the simmering basket. Cook for 20 min/100°C or 212°F/speed 3/MC on.
- Put mussels in the bottom steaming tray, with prawns layered on top. Place fish in a single layer on to top steaming steaming tray. Steam for 10 min/steaming temp/speed 4 or until done.
- Remove seafood to thermal server to keep warm and finish cooking.
- Using tongs, pick out the prawn heads from the simmering basket and discard. Remove the simmering basket and put any left over "bits" into the mixer bowl.
- Add cream to mixer bowl and blend bisque for 1 min/speed 9/MC on.
- Serve bisque in a shallow bowl with seafood presented, fresh cracked pepper and freshly torn basil leaves. Spoon Rouille into the soup while eating or smeared on crusty fresh baguette.
Notes
You can use whichever seafood you prefer, just adjust cooking times.
Some types of firm white fish are blue eye trevalla, ling fish, monk fish, snapper and shark. I used blue eye trevalla.
I recommend you prepare your seafood before you start cooking so that it has a chance to come to room temperature.
