Cornish sole - MEGRIM - a budget sustainable fish

Megrim Cornish Sole
Pan fried MEGRIM CORNISH SOLE. Until now we had never heard of this fish. We saw the fish in the supermarket and as we chatted the woman on the fish counter came over to us and relayed her enthusiasm.
We love fish in general so heeded her advice on how to cook the fish. She said to cook simply, eat off the bone and we will not be disappointed. She said the fish was underrated and all we had to do was cook for 4 minutes each side on a medium heat.
She was right. Off home - with a medley of vegetables to accompany the fish. We couldn't agree more!
The fish was extremely delicate and tasty and at a bargain price compared to  dover or lemon sole. If you like either of these fish you will love this too, as well its price (think bargain basement).
Here it is in all its glory. It really did take just a four minutes to pan fry each side. And… we will be having it again. Some things are so nice to discover - and this is one of them. This type of dish helps us keep the weight off even though its pan fried in butter and oil, with a little squeeze of lemon juice.
