Plaice Veronique

ingredients

serves 4
8 medium plaice fillets, skinned
salt and pepper
150 ml (1/4 pint) dry white wine
1 tablespoon lemon juice
100 g (4 oz) seedless grapes, plus a few extra to garnish (optional)
25 g (1 oz) butter or margarine
25 g (1 oz) plain flour
150 ml (1/4 pint) milk

method

1. Roll up each fillet skinned side inwards. Place the fish rolls in a greased ovenproof dish. Season the fish with salt and pepper, pour over the wine and lemon juice. Cover and bake in a moderately hot oven for about 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily when tested with the point of a knife.

2. Transfer the fish to a serving dish and keep warm. Reserve the cooking liquor for the sauce. Place the grapes in boiling water, boil for one minute, then drain.

3. Heat the butter or margarine over a gentle heat, add the flour, then gradually add the milk, seasoning and reserved cooking liquor, stirring continuously.

4. Bring the sauce to the boil, reduce the heat and simmer gently for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally. Pour the sauce over the fish and garnish with the grapes adding a few unblanched grapes if you like. Serve at once.

Microwave Tip
Arrange the rolls round a shallow dish. Cover with cling film and microwave for 5 minutes on full power. Mix in remaining ingredients, cover and cook for 5 minutes. Add grapes, cook 1 minute and serve.
