Braised Trout in Chilli Bean Sauce (Dou Ban Yu)

Ingredients:
1 rainbow trout (about 3/4 lb/350g), scaled and cleaned, but with head and tail intact
Salt
1 tbsp Shaoxing wine
1/2 cup (100ml) cooking oil, plus 2-3 tbsp more
2 1/2 tbsp Sichuan chilli bean paste
2 tsp finely chopped ginger
4 tsp finely chopped garlic
3/4 cup (200ml) chicken stock
1 tsp light soy sauce, to taste
2 tsp potato flour dissolved in 1 1/2 tbsp cold water
1 tbsp water
3-4 tbsp finely sliced spring onion greens
1 tsp sesame oil

Instructions:
Make three even, diagonal cuts into the thickest part of each side of the fish, to allow the sauce to penetrate. Rub it inside and out with a little salt, then rub the Shaoxing wine into its belly cavity. Set aside for 10-15 minutes, then drain off any liquid and pat it dry. Rub a little more salt into the skin on both sides (to prevent sticking).
Add the 1/2 cup (100ml) oil to a seasoned wok over a high flame. When it is hot, slide in the fish and fry on both sides until it is a little golden (it won't be cooked through). You need to turn the fish carefully and tilt it so the oil comes into contact with all the skin. Pour off the oil into a heatproof container and slide the fish on to a plate.
Clean the wok if necessary, then reheat it over a high flame. Add the 2-3 tbsp oil and reduce the heat to medium. Add the chilli bean paste and stir-fry until the oil is red and smells delicious. Add the ginger and garlic and stir-fry until you can smell them. Pour in the stock and bring to a boil. Slide in the fish and cook for five minutes or so, seasoning with soy sauce to taste. Keep spooning the sauce over the fish and tipping the wok so the whole fish is cooked. (If you are using a larger fish, turn it halfway.) Using a wok scoop and fish slice, carefully lift the fish from the sauce and lay it on a serving dish.
Increase the heat, stir the potato flour mixture and add just enough to thicken the sauce to a rich, clingy consistency (do this in stages to avoid over-thickening). Stir in the spring onion, then switch off the heat. Stir in the sesame oil and ladle the sauce over the waiting fish.
Raspberry-Hazelnut Galette

Ingredients:
3/4 cup raw hazelnuts, skin on
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour plus more for work surface
1/2 cup (1 stick) chilled unsalted butter, cut into 1/2" pieces
1/4 cup sugar
2 large egg yolks
1 cup raspberry jam
1 teaspoon finely grated lime zest
1 tablespoon fresh lime juice
1 large egg, beaten to blend
2 tablespoons raw sugar
Hazelnut or vanilla ice cream (for serving; optional)

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 375°F. Process hazelnuts, salt, and 1 1/4 cups flour in a food processor until nuts are very finely ground; transfer to a medium bowl and set aside.
Process butter and sugar in food processor until smooth. Add egg yolks and pulse just to combine. Add reserved hazelnut mixture and pulse just until blended. Gather into a ball, flatten into a disk, and wrap in plastic. Chill for at least 2 hours. DO AHEAD: Dough can be made 1 day ahead. Keep chilled. Let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes before rolling out.
Mix jam, lime zest, and lime juice in a small bowl to blend; set aside.
Roll out dough on a sheet of floured parchment paper to a 14" round about 1/8" thick, dusting dough with flour as needed to prevent sticking. Spread jam mixture over dough, leaving a 1 1/2" border. Brush beaten egg on border of dough. Using parchment paper as an aid, fold border of dough over jam, pinching together any cracks in dough. Slide parchment paper with galette onto a baking sheet. Brush top of dough with beaten egg; sprinkle with raw sugar.
Bake galette, rotating halfway through, until crust is deep golden brown, 30-40 minutes. Run a large offset spatula or knife between tart and paper to release tart from any jam that may have bubbled out. Let cool completely on pan on a wire rack. DO AHEAD: Galette can be made 3 days ahead. Keep loosely covered at room temperature.
Cut into wedges and serve with ice cream, if desired.
Sichuanese Wontons in Chilli Oil Sauce (Hong You Chao Shou)

Ingredients:
1/2 oz (20g) piece of ginger, unpeeled
5 oz (150g) ground pork
1/2 egg, beaten
1 tsp Shaoxing wine
1/2 tsp sesame oil
Salt
Ground white pepper
3 tbsp chicken stock
3 tbsp finely sliced spring onion greens
7 oz (200g) package of wonton wrappers
Flour, to dust
3-4 tbsp sweet aromatic soy sauce, or 3-4 tbsp light or tamari soy sauce with 1 1/2-2 tsp sugar
5-6 tbsp chilli oil, with its sediment
2-4 heaped tsp crushed garlic
2 tbsp finely sliced spring onion greens

Instructions:
Crush the ginger with the flat of a cleaver or a rolling pin and put it in a cup with just enough cold water to cover. Place the pork, egg, Shaoxing wine and sesame oil in a bowl with 1 1/2 tsp of the ginger water and salt and pepper to taste. Stir well. Mix in the stock, 1 tbsp at a time. Finally, add the spring onion greens.
Fill a small bowl with cold water. Take a wonton wrapper and lay it flat in one hand. Use a table knife or a small spatula to press about 1 tsp of the pork mixture into the center of the wrapper. Dip a finger into the cold water, run it around the edges of the wrapper and fold it diagonally in half. Press the edges tightly together and lay on a flour-dusted tray or large plate.
Bring a large pan of water to a boil over a high heat. While you are waiting for the water to boil, prepare three or four serving bowls. In each bowl, place 1 tbsp sweet aromatic soy sauce (or 1 tbsp tamari soy sauce and 1/2 tsp sugar), 1 1/2 tbsp chilli oil with sediment and 1/2-1 heaped tsp of crushed garlic to taste.
When the water has come to a boil, drop in the wontons. Stir gently to make sure they do not stick together. When the water returns to a rolling boil, pour in a small cup of cold water to calm it down. Repeat this one more time. When the water has come to a boil for the third time, the wontons should be cooked through (cut one open to make sure). Remove the wontons with a slotted spoon, drain well, and divide between the prepared serving bowls. Scatter each bowl with some of the spring onion greens. Serve immediately, stirring everything together before digging in.
