Steps:

• To prep artichokes, use a serrated knife and cut off outer leaves to the tender yellow/pale leaves. Trim the bottom and spoon out the 'hair'. Trim the stem to the heart. Quarter the artichoke with stem on. In a pot of salted, boiling water, blanch the prepped artichokes to al dente, about 10 minutes and shock in ice water. Set aside. To make the sauce, use a hot non-reactive sauce pan coated with oil and sautee garlic, ginger, and leeks until soft, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Add the artichokes and tomatoes then deglaze with vinegar and reduce by 80 per cent. Add the butter and stir in. Check for seasoning. Meanwhile pre-heat an oven to 425 degrees. In a very hot skillet coated with oil, pan sear the seasoned fish until brown on both sides, about 3 minutes a side. Transfer to oven and roast for 5 minutes or until a skewer can easily penetrate the fish.
• In a saucepan, add potatoes and fill with cold water. Add a little salt. Slowly boil potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes until potatoes come cleanly off of a pairing knife. In another hot saucepan coated with oil, caramelize garlic than add thyme and cream. Reduce cream by 30 per cent. In a large stainless steel bowl, add hot potatoes and garlic cream. Hand mash together. Add butter, salt and pepper and check for seasoning. Keep warm.
• PLATING Place a mound of mash in the center of a plate. Surround with the artichoke/vinegar sauce. Place bass on top and garnish with chives.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the grill to medium-high.2. Rinse the fish, inside and out, under cold running water, then drain and blot dry with paper towels. Make 3 diagonal slashes, to the bone, in each side of each fish. Season the fish, inside and out (including the side slashes), with salt and pepper and brush both sides with 2 tablespoons oil. Set aside to marinate for 20 minutes.3. Meanwhile, prepare the artichoke salad. Tear the green outer leaves off the artichokes and cut off the ends of the stems using a sharp knife. Cut the artichokes into paper-thin slices, preferably on a mandoline, or by hand. Toss them with the lemon juice in a nonreactive bowl.4. Add the tomato, basil, chives, garlic, anchovy (if using), and oil to the artichokes and toss gently but thoroughly to mix. Add salt and pepper to taste the mixture should be highly seasoned. Set aside.5. When ready to cook, brush each fish lightly on both sides with additional oil and sprinkle with more salt and pepper. If you're worried about the fish sticking, use hinged fish grilling baskets otherwise, oil the grate and place both fish directly on it. Grill until the skin on the first side is dark and crisp and the flesh is cooked through to the bone on that side, 8 to 10 minutes. Turn each fish carefully with a long spatula and cook on the second side until the flesh breaks into firm flakes when pressed with a finger, another 8 to 10 minutes.6. Using the spatula, carefully transfer the fish to a serving platter. Fillet the fish, then spoon the artichoke salad over the fish to serve.Serves 4Note: Baby artichokes are available in May and June at Italian markets, specialty greengrocers, and many supermarkets. If you can't find them, use one 10-ounce package frozen artichoke hearts, prepared according to package directions, then thinly sliced and tossed with lemon juice. In a real pinch, you can use canned artichoke hearts just make sure you rinse and drain them well before slicing.
