Step 2 Sauté aromatics
In a heavy bottomed sauté pan heat oil over medium heat. Add walnuts and raisins and sauté for 1-2 minutes just until toasted and aromatic. Add onion, pepper, fennel, and eggplant and sauté until just softened, about 5 minutes. To this, add vinegar and brown sugar and stir to combine. Allow to cook 1 minute. Add salt to taste. Add the vegetable mixture to the pollock portions, completely covering them and allow the whole dish to cool. This dish is best served at room temperature and is even better if allowed to sit overnight before serving. To serve, remove from the fridge one hour before serving with toasted baguette and lightly dressed salad greens.
