For the first time, just cooked a lemon sole and a dover sole following your method, very straightforward and delicious. Thank you.

[@aaryamankhoda1317]

I added a little hot-sauce to the butter while finishing the sauce. One of the best dishes I have made myself. Thank you for such a flavourful yet simple recipe that can be replicated anywhere, chef!

[@User25896]

Looks delicious 😋 and easy peasy too❤

[@DaveandGinny972]

I did this a few weeks ago, first time we've had Sole in a long time and it was absolutely amazing. Have friends for dinner this evening and cooking Sole again as it is just so delicious and simple to cook...even though I need to use two pans!

[@katharina...]

Holy moly, I'm a butter and lemon addict and it never occured to me to combine the two? What's that all about? 😁 Thanks a mill for sharing this lovely recipe, I'll be making it later this week when my fish is delivered 👍

[@cattona34]

I just found a local fish monger who can get me lemon sole. So lemon sole is finally back on my regular seafood diet because I love it! And this recipe is perfect! I can't wait to try it...

[@ChefTomKerridge]

That is awesome! Always tastes incredible when you can buy local 🙌

[@esuida]

[@equalizer1553]

Finally a recipe without a lot of faffing about

[@GEOHHADDAD]

This is a go to dish for me. I have a few alternate suggestions from this recipe. I use clarified butter (yes, it’s easy to make) rather than oil. I use an iron pan and get the butter just below ripping hot before laying down the flor coated fish fish in the clarified butter. Clarified butter will cook cleanly and give you a great flavor without having to baste the fish and will also give you a nicer light crust. Fish takes about 2 minutes a side. i also like to finish the pan sauce with a knob of unsalted butter and half and half mix of good Chablis (best wine to drink with this dish is a flinty 1cru Chablis) and lemon. Also, for reasons unknown. I have found dry salted capers (well rinsed and let to dry on a paper towel) are better than brined capers. I put the capers in the pan first to give them a little browning and then the wine/lemon mix. I usually serve the fish with a side of very small baby potatoes boiled with parsley stalks (that you’ll have left over) and finished in a pan with butter, shallots and fresh thyme (I do that part as I am cooking the fish). Like Tom I prefer a fairly thick filet of Dover sole. Here in California though, Petrale sole is usually better as you can get it very fresh from a high quality seafood counter. There isn’t a lot between your taste buds and this dish so get the very best fish you can. Don’t use supermarket fish or frozen fish.

[@samsung63]

Sounds nice, but i'm not sure you could call it Sole Meuniere. Some customers may think it tastes a bit funny/ different. It sounds good though, I might prefer your version.

[@frankdenver6535]

Brilliant

[@christinedonga7734]

You are a PRO!

[@marteriamusik]

Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you in your cooking.

[@Infectionguru]

Going to try tonight, Thanks.....bt

[@esuida]

I paired it with wild rice and you would have thought I was a chef 👩‍🍳. Great

[@ChefTomKerridge]

Sounds great! Glad you enjoyed🏴‍☠️🙌

[@GEOHHADDAD]

. I like baby potatoes pan finished with shallots and thyme but wild rice would give a great texture contrast and not over power the fish

[@Dapur-0073]

How did the rice gone wild? Did it just ran away from the paddy

[@brooklyniron1999]

That is not a pairing. It’s an accompaniment. Wine or Cidre would be a pairing.

[@keitumetsemolatlhwa7415]

Issa like 🥰

[@johncutts6466]

Great vid. how about boning it though?

[@narineabrelian5024]

❤❤❤

[@nancimc1077]

Do you think this would be good with Snapper?

[@Zaph_Kiel]

I add leeks and garlic to mine, and a pinch of cornstarch in the lemon juice.

[@wendyoke7872]

Will have a go 😊

[@marteriamusik]

Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you in your cooking.

[@loobyloo6254]

Need to make 4 though aghh x

[@Mia-hd2xn]

❤

[@user-lq9oi5jq3n]

Okay.

[@ARCSTREAMS]

that's how i do it too with the cappers but you used way too much and id rather sprinkle the fresh parsley over the drizzled fish at the end

[@sandraskellen3172]

How long can you keep capers in the fridge once opened?

[@GEOHHADDAD]

Depends. I like to buy dry capers in salt and they keep fine for months. If you used brined capers use a spoon to remove the capers from the brine so your remaining capers stay in the brine.

[@daveappleyard908]

No excuses now. Brought 2 x Dover sole. Dinner tonight going to do boiled jersey royals, and green French beans. Bottle of nice white. Hope Tom not made it look to easy. !!!

[@carlostovar5713]

What is a fishmonger sounds like a Pokemon can I not just get soul at the meat market do I need a specific type of soul I don't know about fish

[@RubyZan]

Using Mediterranean sea salt will take your fish recipes to the next level. Italy, France, Greece, Moroccoa, Lebanon, Spain, Portugal all have incredible cuisines and all use MSS. Give it a try.

[@user-pf3hl7pv7q]

How no it

[@sadafshaheen787]

hi new viewr u

[@bas1sokkie604]

Dear editors and mixing engineers. I have some shocking news for you. When somebody in the video is talking, putting music behind it is a *BAD* idea. It may be hip, cool, modern or whatever. But it *SUCKS* . Thank you.

[@dazboot2966]

Oh Tom. No bloody capers in a meuniére

[@ron4501]

Way too many capers my friend. Also, if you let the fish sit without moving the pan around, it won't stick and lose some of the crust.

[@jaimeclifton9078]

Cooking tips for a 2 Michelin star chef - hilarious......

[@dazboot2966]

@@jaimeclifton9078 he’s right about the capers though. No capers in that dish.

[@sallyaguilar4204]

Yes butter and capers on any white fish 🐟 😋

[@Wolf-rg7ih]

Fish was healthy until he showered in butter. Became fast food

[@GEOHHADDAD]

Not at all. The butter adds about 200 calories per tablespoon on your plate. As far as fast food this is classic French bistro cuisine so…not so much.

[@gsh7829]

Non non. Ceci n'est pas une sole meunière. Mais un poisson maltraité au beurre de câpres.

[@ericklamotte617]

Your pan is too hot, your butter is burning causing a burnt flavor. There are no capers in a meunière sauce.

[@peterhuntington7151]

The butter is burnt. Should have used calcified butter.

[@amandarose3169]

I don't like greasy food, so no thank you.

[@marteriamusik]

Thank you for your lovely compliment. I hope my recipe was able to help you in your cooking.

[@user-nj7ct5sm3u]

Sorry not a good colour on the fish seen better
