This dish looks especially pretty if plated like this: make a thin circle of the zucchini puree on a plate. Stack eggplant and onion on top of zucchini paste circle. Place halibut on top of the onions; drizzle fish with basil puree; and garnish with roasted pepper and tomato salad and a fried basil leaf.

In a medium pan, add olive oil and zucchini, allowing time for zucchini to sweat. Then, add chicken stock, cover, and let simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Add triple blanched garlic and cream, cook further for 5 minutes. Blend in a blender, adding fresh spinach. Strain into a bowl resting in an ice bath and let cool immediately.
