here's a dinner i did a few weeks ago with some wine friends - plating for 7 people, so not as pretty as it should have been
1. halibut tostadas + jicama slaw
2. grilled swordfish with shiitake mushrooms + wilted arrugula
3. fillet with colbert sauce, brabant potatoes + creamed corn
4. the wine with all courses

didn't have pics of the dessert - french walnut tart with caramel sauce

Is Pil Pil with white wine, olive oil and lemon?

well, not that much

pil-pil is olive oil, garlic and the protein coming out from the fish skin while is being cooked

white wine is not a good addition in this case

and we try not to use lemon with fish, lemon kills fish flavour (i say we, specifically basques, spaniards may use lemon)

pil-pil is a very delicate to perform, as it is an emulsion and very unstable, if you overheat you turn the emulsion to oil very quickly
