FLOUNDER WITH TANGELO AND GINGER
Ingredients
Preferred measurement of units
Serves 4
4 flounders (may also substitute New Zealand sole, yellow-belly flounder, lemon sole, brill or turbot)
4 tangelos
4 Tbsp butter
4 Tbsp ginger root, grated
4 Tbsp parsley, chopped
Method
Ask your fish seller to skin the flounders, or for a more elegant but less flavoursome presentation, bake the flounder skin-on.
Place each flounder on one half of a sheet of greased aluminium foil & fold up the sides to ensure the liquid does not leak.
Squeeze the juice from the tangelos & pour equal amounts over each fish. (The slight sharpness of tangelos makes them ideal for cooking with fish. You might substitute the juice of 3 oranges here, provided it is mixed with the juice of a lemon to give a tart edge to the flavour).
Break the butter into small pieces & dab over the surface of the flounder, then sprinkle an equal amount of grated ginger root over each fish.
Fold over the other half of the aluminium foil, crimp the edges & bake in an 190ºC374ºF oven for 20 minutes.
If the flounder is baked skin-on, remove the cooked skin with a sharp knife. Sprinkle with chopped parsley & serve.
