Instructions

1 Start this recipe by making the rice. Boil a cup of rice in 2 cups of water,
uncovered on medium heat until the water is dissolved (about 15 minutes). While
the rice is boiling, start on step 2.
2 Use a paper towel to pat dry the filet of fish. You'll want it to be completely
dry before adding the crust. In a separate bowl add the mascarpone, chopped
pistachios, sumac, water and salt. Mix together with a fork. If it is too thin,
add a little more mascarpone, if too thick add a little bit of water. Place the
fish on a foil lined baking tray and rub the crust mixture over the top of the
fish.
3 Preheat your oven to 175 Celsius or 350 Fahrenheit. Put the baking tray with the
fish in the oven and cook for 15 minutes on convection.
4 While the fish is baking, add the olive oil to a skillet on medium heat. Add the
saffron and let the color diffuse into the oil. Then add the rice and mix it all
up with the oil.
