4 - Prepare the parsley coulis: remove the leaves from the parsley. Blanch the parsley in boiling water, then cool in iced water. Squeeze the parsley by hand to remove excess water. Blend in a blender with 25 cl white wine and 25 cl water for 10 min. Strain the mixture and recover only the juice. Weigh the juice and add 1% agar-agar by weight. Bring to the boil, strain and leave to cool. Once cooled, blend the jelly to obtain a gel.

5 - Prepare the peas: dehusk, blanch in salted water, then cool in iced water. Set aside.

6 - Presentation: fry the fillets in a pan with a knob of butter. Arrange the zucchini cream in the middle of the plate, adding a few dots of coconut gel and parsley coulis, the peas and chervil sprigs. Place the St Pierre fillets on top of the zucchini cream and serve.
