"This recipe is the perfect ready-in-no-time supper when you have a busy week and still want to dine well. The technique of dredging the sole in flour (lemon sole would also work just as fine) and cooking it gently in oil and butter is called ‘à la meunière’ in French, meaning ‘of the miller's wife’. The quick sauce made of butter, lemon, capers, and parsley is made in the same pan to soak up the flavour of the fish."
