I am somehow addicted to buying fish for the last few days, I have stocked my refrigerator with cod, lemon sole, dory, halibut as well as Chinese fish balls.
My assignment for tonight's dinner was to cook at least 2 types of fish and I had chosen lemon sole and dory. They are both white fish with mild flavor which is great for what I had in mind - an a la Indian style spiced fish.
They are quick to prepare and the yogurt dipping is very very refreshing! A delicious and healthier subsitute to tartar or mayonnaise based dippings.
I loved the idea of two different fish serve in a same plate! Got to enjoy the variety of textures and tastes.
