Lemon Sole is a flat fish that live on stony bottoms and are available to shallow seas around Northern Europe.
Lemon sole is an incorrect name for this fish as it is neither a real sole fish nor has the taste of lemon but it’s the fish that has delicate, lovable white flesh. You can cook it simply; either grilled or fried or makes goujons and serves with favorite light sauce.
Strips of the lemon sole are crusted in seasoned flour and then in breadcrumbs and deep-fried until wonderfully crispy. These Lemon Sole fillets are served with tartar sauce.
