Final Exam, FISH ! Turbot and calamari

Today, we received our ingredients list for the final exam on 31st May; It's fish ! Quite a surprise to me, but I'm happy with that. I do like fish a lot and this time we have to do something with turbot, calamari (squid), asparagus, fresh peas and lettuce. The rest on the list is optional.

We have to plate 4 identical plates, and 4 shot-glasses with a cold or warm soup (served separately). Total time available is 4 hours.
We have to make 3 garnishes, including a farce (stuffing) and a sauce or jus for the main dish. And, what's NOT on the list, is NOT available (like balsamic).

Please have a look at the ingredients list and the basic rules and if you have some nice ideas, please let me know! Email: sjoerd.servaas@hetnet.nl
And keep in mind the judges are OLD.... and very very French!
I hope to hear from you readers! Thanks a lot.
