Basic Fish Mousse
It may be a basic way to make this fish mousse, but the flavor was definitely very sophisticated. Light, silken-smooth with the creamy and rich Hollandaise sauce that Sean made from the scratch, it was an ultimate enjoyment!

PREHEAT OVEN TO 350℉ (180℃).
Combine whitefish, lobster, onion, salt, brandy and tomato paste in a food processor and blend until smooth.
Add the egg whites and blend until incorporated.
Transfer the mixture to a bowl, cover and chill for 30 minutes.
Stir in the cream until incorporated. Divide the mousse between buttered ramekins.
Place the ramekins in a water bath, cover and place in oven for 20 minutes.
To serve, turn the contents of each ramekin out onto a warm plate, spoon some Hollandaise-based sauce over each mousse and serve immediately.
