SAUCE ROSEE

• While the sauce is cooking, bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add pasta and cook according to the package instructions (fresh tortellini take less time than dried). Drain and set aside.

HOW TO COOK FISH ROE

Steps:

• Rinse the fish roe in a bowl of fresh water. Fill a clean bowl with cool water and place the fish roe in it. Use your fingers to move the water around the roe, cleaning it super thoroughly. Use white perch roe for a great taste in this recipe. Wash your hands before and after handling the roe. Set the roe aside on a plate once it's clean.
• Combine the milk, salt, and pepper together in a dish. Use a shallow bowl or baking dish to hold the ingredients. Pour 1⁄2 cup (120 ml) of milk into the dish as well as a few sprinkles of salt and pepper, depending on your tastes. Stir the ingredients together with a spoon so they're well combined. If you're not sure how much salt and pepper you'd like on your roe, start with a small amount. You can always add more after the fish eggs are cooked.
• Mix cornmeal and flour together in a separate dish. Use a dish that's a little bit smaller than the first dish you used. Pour 1/2 cup (20 grams) of cornmeal and 2 tablespoons (16 grams) of flour into the dish and stir them together with a spoon so the dry ingredients are thoroughly mixed. It's also okay to use a whisk or fork to combine the ingredients.
• Coat the roe in the milk mixture and then the cornmeal mixture. Place the roe in the milk mixture and thoroughly coat it before you dip it into the cornmeal and flour mixture. Make sure the cornmeal mixture is coating the roe on all sides for the best taste. Coating the roe in the milk mixture thoroughly is important so the cornmeal mixture will stick to it.
• Place the roe in an oiled skillet set on medium-high heat. Sprinkle olive oil into a large skillet so the pan is evenly coated in a light layer. Set your burner to medium-high heat and wait for the skillet to heat up before placing the roe on it. Spread the roe out evenly on the skillet so they cook thoroughly.
• Cook the roe for 2-3 minutes on each side so they're golden brown. Let the roe fry in the skillet for 2-3 minutes before using a slotted spoon or spatula to flip each one over. Wait another 2-3 minutes for this side to cook before checking the roe. When the sides are golden brown and slightly crispy, it's done. It's a good idea to cover the pan when the roe is frying because the fish eggs tend to sizzle and pop. Set a timer for each side so they're cooked evenly.
• Set the fish roe on a paper towel to let them drain. Once the roe is done frying, move each one to a paper towel-lined plate. Let them sit on the plate while you finish the rest of the cooking so the excess oil is absorbed. Cover the roe with an additional paper towel on top to help trap the heat.
• Add the onions to the skillet and cook them for roughly 8 minutes. Pour a little more oil into the pan if necessary and add the chopped up onions as well. Stir them as they cook for about 8 minutes, or until they become tender and slightly brown. Stir the onions around frequently so they don't stick to the pan.
• Sprinkle garlic into the skillet and cook for a minute before adding lemon juice. Keep the onions in the skillet and add in 1 tablespoon (9 grams) of garlic, mixing it with a wooden spoon for a minute so the garlic can cook. Pour in 1 US tbsp (15 ml) of lemon juice and combine all the ingredients thoroughly. Once the lemon juice is properly mixed in, the mixture is ready.
• Pour the onion and garlic mixture over the roe and serve it hot. Place the roe on a clean plate so it's ready to be eaten. Scoop the garlic, onion, and lemon mixture out and drizzle it over the fried roe. If you're not sure whether you'll like the sauce or not, pour a small amount over the roe to begin with.

POMPANO FILLET WITH FLYING FISH ROE

Steps:

• Combine the lime juice, mirin, soy sauce, ginger and cornstarch in a small bowl making sure the cornstarch is well dissolved. Dredge the pompano fillet in flour and season with salt and pepper. Place a bed of daikon julienne on a dish and place a ring of pea shoots around the outside of the dish. Repeat for each serving. Heat the oil in a large skillet over high heat for 1 minute. Add the fish fillets and saute until crisp on both sides about 4 to 5 minutes. Add the lime juice and cornstarch mix to the pan and cook for 1 minute over high heat until the liquid thickens. Stir the fish roe in quickly and immediately pour some caviar sauce over each fish fillet. Serve with jasmine rice.;

SHAD ROE WITH BLACK BUTTER CAPER SAUCE

Steps:

• Pat the roe dry with paper towels and dredge them lightly with flour.
• Heat the oil and one tablespoon butter in a large skillet and brown the roe on both sides. Cover the pan and continue cooking for a further five to eight minutes, or until the roe are firm when pressed with your finger. Remove them to a heated platter and keep them warm.
• Wipe out the pan with a paper towel. Add the remaining butter and cook over medium heat, stirring, until it turns light brown. Add the capers and lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper and pour the sauce over the roe. Garnish with lemon and parsley and serve.
