Contains FISH

Grilled, pan-fried, poached or roasted, Dover Sole is a really versatile fish to cook, though it seems to work best in simple recipes that allow its flavour to shine. The classic French recipe, Sole à la Meunière, is a great example; the fish is dredged in flour, pan-fried and served with a butter, lemon juice and parsley sauce.

Dover Sole has medium-brown mottled skin with a lighter underside. Once cooked, separate the top fillet along the backbone and remove the fillets with a pallet knife, then pull the head towards the tail to remove the bones.

Please note that, because fish and shellfish naturally vary in size, we will always adhere to the pack weights given. At times, for example, one large whole fish will be enough to make up the weight, at other times it may be two or more smaller fish; so, although the number of fish supplied may change between orders, the weight received will always remain the same. Please be aware that a description of a fish as ‘boned’ means that, although the fishmongers will have removed the bones to the best of their ability, we cannot guarantee that any piece of fish will be entirely bone-free.
