Striped Bass With Saffron Vegetables And Spiced Broccoli Rabe

  1. Finely grind first 5 ingredients in spice grinder. Transfer to small bowl. Add butter and tomato paste; stir to blend. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Preheat oven to 350u0b0F. Place garlic in small ovenproof dish. Drizzle with 1 teaspoon oil, cover tightly with foil, and roast until tender, about 30 minutes. Cool; peel.
  3. Place roasted garlic, remaining 2 tablespoons oil, olives, capers, raisins, anchovies, and crushed red pepper in mortar. Mash with pestle until coarse puree forms. (Alternatively, process in mini processor until coarse puree forms.)
  4. Cook broccoli rabe in large saucepan of boiling salted water until stems are crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain, pressing on broccoli rabe to release excess water. Transfer to medium bowl. Add spiced puree and toss to coat.
  5. Bring broth to boil in heavy large saucepan. Add cauliflower, squash, and radishes. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover and simmer 3 minutes. Uncover, add 6 tablespoons saffron butter, and simmer until vegetables are tender and broth thickens slightly, stirring frequently, about 4 minutes.
  6. Meanwhile, sprinkle fish with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour. Heat 1 tablespoon oil in each of 2 large skillets over medium-high heat. Place 3 fillets, skin side down, in each skillet and cook until brown, about 3 minutes per side.
  7. Divide vegetables and broth among 6 shallow soup bowls. Top each with fish fillet, skin side up. Top with spiced broccoli rabe and serve.
