Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

4 ripe tomatoes, about 1 pound
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped shallots
1 teaspoon finely chopped garlic
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon ground cumin
Salt and ground pepper to taste
4 tablespoons butter
4 skinless fillets of lemon sole, about 1 pound
4 tablespoons milk
1/2 cup flour
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
4 sprigs fresh basil or parsley

Steps:

  • Place tomatoes in boiling water for about 10 seconds. Drain, and pull away skins; remove cores. Cut tomatoes crosswise and into 1/4-inch cubes.
  • Heat olive oil in saucepan, add shallots and garlic. Cook briefly. Do not brown. Add tomatoes, ginger, cumin, and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil and simmer 5 minutes.
  • Place tomato mixture in a blender. Add 1 tablespoon butter, and blend quickly to a fine texture. Check seasoning; transfer to small saucepan and keep warm.
  • Meanwhile, sprinkle fillets with salt and pepper to taste. Pour milk into a shallow bowl; put the flour on a dish. Dredge each fillet with flour, patting so flour adheres and shaking to remove excess.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place as many fillets in the pan as will fit in one layer without crowding.
  • Brown fillets thoroughly on one side; turn, and brown on other side. Cooking will take about 2 minutes on each side, depending on the thickness of the fillets. Do not overcook.
  • Divide tomato mixture equally among four warm serving plates. Place fillets over tomatoes, and keep warm.
  • While the pan is still warm, wipe it out with a paper towel and return it to medium-high heat. Add the remaining butter, and cook until hazelnut brown. Add lemon juice, and pour equally over each serving. Top with basil or parsley.
