Serves 8 people
400 g filet of pikeperch
1 kg eggplant

1 dessert spoon chopped basil
150 g fresh chavignol goat's cheese
100 g double cream

Preheat the oven to thermostat 7. Grease a high-sided cake tin.
Slice 3 eggplants longways, dust with salt and pepper. Leave to drain in a colander.
Meanwhile, cut the other eggplants in half and cook in the oven for 30 minutes. Rinse and dry the 3 sliced eggplants then fry in the oil until golden-brown. Line the cake tin with them.
Poach the fish for 6 mins in the stock.
 
Take the pulp out of the baked eggplants and cream this with the fish, the cheese, the cream and the eggs. Add salt and pepper and mix to form a smooth paste.
