Here, chef Joan Torrens lovingly preserves old recipes, modernizing them slightly but always staying true to the vibrant simplicity of the local traditions, One of his signature dishes is this fish, slowly braised in the oven on a bed of potatoes and capped with a mouthwatering ragout of red and yellow bell peppers, tomatoes, and chard. Currants and pine nuts, which are used liberally in Joan’s kitchen, add the Moorish accent characteristic of Mallorcan cuisine. In fact, the dish brings to mind the food of Sicily - another cuisine that melds Mediterranean and Arab flavors to seductive effect. The recipe is a bit more involved than just plonking fish in the oven, but the result is a marvelous one-dish meal that requires nothing more than a salad of peppery greens. http://www.grouprecipes.com/10998/mallorcan-braised-grouper.html
