Flounder/sole poach <r t>

4 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
2 pounds Sole Fillets, or flounder
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
3 tablespoons Nonfat Milk, or skim
½ cup Mushrooms, sliced
teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Nutmeg
½ teaspoon Paprika

Directions

**There was barely enough liquid to poach ¾ lb of fish in. I would definitely increase the liquid poaching ingredients.** Combine lemon juice and milk with ½ C water in a skillet and bring to a boil. Add fillets and poach for 3 min. Remove fillets to shallow baking dish. Simmer liquid until it boils down to half. Add mushrooms and cook for 2 min. Stir in remaining ingredients. Pour mushroom mixture over fillets.

Brown under broiler for 1 min.

Yields: 4 servings

Selection: Depending on the species, the sizes of flounder and sole vary greatly. They are sold either dressed whole or as fillets,which may weigh from 4 - 12 ozs. Purchase ½ lb whole fish or ⅓ lb fillets per serving.

Preparation: The appeal of both flounder and sole is its firm, white flesh, fine texture and delicate flavor. They are successfully fried, baked, broiled and stuffed.

AKA: Sand dabs, Greenland turbot, blackbacks, plaice.

What is it?? Is it flounder or is it sole? In this country (US), it is almost always flounder, even if it is called sole. Several species of flounder are harvested by otter trawl from the Atlantic, Pacific an Gulf Coasts and are available year-round. The most commonly harvested is the west coast's "dover-sole". True sole is imported from France and England.
