Quiet Luxury: My Take on Bonne Femme
Iridescent Shark à la Bonne Femme with Grilled Asparagus and Lemon Balsamic CreamWhen culinary curiosity meets the delicate simplicity of French cuisine combined with the vibrancy of seasonal vegetables, the result is a plate that pleases both the eye and the palate.
Guided by the voice of one of my favorite instructors at Scoolinary Academy, Chef Ignacio Barrios (I truly hope we’ll have the opportunity to keep learning from him), I stepped into a calm dialogue between tradition and personal intuition. Bonne Femme Fish immediately caught my attention for its warmth, simplicity, and depth of flavor. His recipe served as a compass, and the tender fish, embraced by a creamy sauce of white wine, mushrooms, and butter, evoked the serenity of French kitchens and a subtle luxury that never demands attention, but always receives it.
I served it with golden potatoes… crispy on the outside, soft on the inside, ideal for soaking up every drop of the sauce.
To bring extra freshness and a contrast of flavors, I added grilled green asparagus, finished with a drizzle of lemon balsamic cream. This small addition brought a refreshing tang and rounded out the entire dish.
The result was an aromatic and rich plate that celebrates simple ingredients at their best. A dish that unites continental sophistication with Mediterranean brightness. Perfect for a spring or summer lunch, accompanied by a glass of chilled white wine and a moment where time gently stands still.

@undefined Ohhh now I’m blushing like I’ve been standing next to an oven at 220°C with no fan! 😂 You know me… I just couldn’t leave the recipe alone. Had to give it the full “Mihajlović treatment”: citrus to sing, asparagus to strike a pose, mushrooms to sparkle… It turned into a full-blown family drama in white wine sauce. 😅 But if you’re happy with it, then I know the plate did its job. Thank you sis ❤

@Beatriz Torija Haha thank you, Beatriz! You know how it is… one ingredient wants to shine, the other one wants a solo, and suddenly I’m just trying to keep the peace while plating. Total culinary soap opera! 😂

Dear Lana,
We’ve missed your posts so much! You have that special magic that instantly transports us into your kitchen with every word. Your sensitivity and the art of how you describe your creations are a form of art themselves. It’s truly a privilege to have you sharing here.
Thank you for showing us such a carefully prepared dish and for offering such a personal reflection on the experience. The presentation has a rustic charm that beautifully matches the “quiet luxury” you mentioned. The contrast between the creamy fish and the golden potatoes is eye-catching, and the touch of balsamic on the asparagus adds freshness and character. 🙌
We also appreciate you showing us the results of the course with Chef Ignacio Barrios. It’s wonderful to hear how much his classes continue to inspire and guide you.
What other French dishes would you like to explore or reinterpret in your own style? We’d love to keep seeing how you combine solid technique with such refined sensitivity. Keep cooking with that calm creativity that shines through in every bite!-

@Sussan Estela Olaya Dear Sussan,
Wow… your words truly moved me. I read them three times and then once more just to soak them in properly. 😅
Thank you for taking the time to see me so clearly… in the plate, in the words, in the tiny details I didn’t even plan consciously. You always manage to notice and articulate the very essence of what I try to express, even when I’m just throwing things on a plate in a rush before I devour them! 😄
And about Chef Ignacio Barrios… I’m honestly blown away. He doesn’t just teach recipes, he shares a part of himself. Every time I listen to him, I get the feeling he genuinely wants to give us everything he knows, without holding back. That kind of passion is rare, and I’m so grateful to be on the receiving end of it.
As for the next French dish… I’ve got a few ideas simmering. Something creamy, warm, comforting… with a little Mihajlović twist, of course. Coming soon, I hope! 😄
Thank you again for your kind words and support, it means more than I can express in one comment. ❤️
