Prepare the salad:
Make a lemon vinaigrette for the salad:Combine the lemon juice and olive oil in a corked bottle. Sprinkle in black pepper and shake vigorously. Mix the salad and lemon vinaigrette just before serving and season with a pinch of salt. Fry the pike:Cut the boneless pike fillet into serving pieces and season with a generous sprinkling of sea salt and a couple of rounds of black pepper. If you can’t get a large pike, fold the portion pieces in half so that you can fry them with a golden brown surface to overcook them. Heat the frying pan or cast iron skillet to a very high temperature so that it almost smokes. First add the rapeseed oil to the hot frying pan and place the fish in the pan. Fry for a few seconds on the taydellä lämmöllä until they have taken on a golden brown colour, then drop into the fryingämpöspace. At this stage, add a large knob of butter, a sprig of thyme, a bay leaf and a lightly crushed clove of garlic to the pan. Let the butter brown in the pan but don’t burn it.
