I'm a big fan of sole!
In my opinion, they are best poached and filleted, which is super easy, even with small ones.
1: trim the frills off with scissors
2: skin them by making a small cut horizontally across the base of the tale, grab the flap of skin with a pair of fine pliers and just pull - the skin with come off in a single, easy motion.
You'll be left with:
3: remove the heads and tails and put into a pan of simmering milk with garlic and pepper - leave for 4 minutes
4: remove from pan and, using a knife, pull away the little side bones (not sure of the proper name)
5: you should be left with the 2 sides of fish held together by the spine and ribs - carefully remove the flesh by running a knife down the center of the flesh along the spine and pushing the meat off the bone - you be left with 4 fillets per fish - which you can just about see in the recipe book at bottom of the picture I posted.
Serve with new potatoes and a Beurre Noisette with a sprinkle of finely chopped flat-leaf parsely.... heaven!
