A New Look at this Classic French Fish Dish
Sole
Meuniere (miller's wife), is a classic and simple French fish dish, now
mainly forgotten. The miller's wife would have had access to plenty of
flour to coat her Sole before cooking and was probably a good plain
cook with few airs and graces.
Nowadays in our constant search for
new and exciting cuisines from all over the World a lot of old rustic
style cooking is being lost forever:

have adapted the original recipe just a little with the addition of
Olive oil and Garlic and the result is something very special. Just
follow the step-by-step recipe below and you can be eating Great Sole Meuniere

Here's what you will need for four people.

best, but Lemon Sole works well too.
- 2 Ozs./50g. of plain flour.
- 2 Ozs./50g. of butter.
- 2 Tablespoons of good extra virgin olive oil.
- 1 Large lemon (juice of).
- 2 Cloves of garlic (finely chopped).
- 1 Handfull of flatleaf parsley (chopped).

Now this is what you'll do.
Method.
 Season the
flour with plenty of salt and black pepper and coat the Sole fillets
well making sure to shake off any excess flour.- Heat the oil and butter together in a large pan
(the oil will stop the butter from burning) and add the fish fillets.

(depending on the the thickness of the fillets), until cooked and
golden.
- Remove the fish from the pan and keep it warm.

for about two minutes.

- finally - whisk in the lemon juice - check for
seasoning and you're ready to serve.

spoon over the sauce.
