Gratin of Sole
(options: flounder, fluke, pompano)
4 fillets of sold
6 oz butter or margarine
4 tbsp chopped fresh parsley
4 scallions, white parts only or shallots, chopped
2 cups chopped fresh mushrooms
Salt and white pepper
4 tbsp toasted bread crumbs
1/2 cup dry white wine.
Butter a large shallow casserole dish and sprinkle the base with
half of the parsley, scallions or shallots, and mushrooms. Season
with salt and pepper and lay the fish on top. Cover with the rest of the
chopped vegetables and top with the bread crumbs. Pour the wine over
the bread crumbs. Melt the remaining butter and sprinkle over everything.
Bake in a preheated 425 oven for 15 minutes or until the fish is cooked and
the top is crisp and golden. At the end of the cooking, the dish may be broiled
quickly, if necessary to add color to the top.
