Departed soles
Posted by dobbino (Cape Town, South Africa) on 27 August 2009 in Food & Cuisine and Portfolio.
The remains of one of our superb Tuesday evening dinners - we each had two baby soles, first dipped in beaten egg and then in bread crumbs lightly seasoned with salt and freshly ground black pepper, left in the fridge for 30-plus minutes to set, and then shallow fried in butter. Served with chips and fresh home-made tartar sauce. Need I say more - oh yes - and with a bottle of Durbanville Hills 2008 Sauvignon Blanc (how could I forget?).
BTW - the idea of photographing the bones came from my lovely wife, and with the title coming from yours truly, this turned out to be a great joint effort - thanks Jacqui!
I'm not sure whether I will get to any posts today - am going into hospital for a minor procedure, but it does involve a general anaesthetic. So I have pre-posted a shot for tomorrow. If I am not in a position to get to your posts today, will try and catch up tomorrow (Friday), or over the weekend.
All comments, and especially constructive criticism is truly appreciated. Thank you for taking the time.
