Ingredients

160g small lemon sole fillets, cut in half

Method

1) Put the semolina on a plate. Season the sole fillets with salt and pepper and then turn over in the
semolina to lightly coat.

2) Heat the olive oil over a moderate heat and shallow fry the sole fillets for a couple of minutes until
lightly golden and just cooked through.

leaves. Then toss it through some of the dressing. Serve immediately.
