(Coley) Lieu noir provençal
posted by carol @ 02:20PM, 8/23/07
I have a "thing" about coley - particularly the strong smell when it comes fresh from the fishmonger.
This recipe was excellent, because the taste of the fish was present, but the provençal mixture (fruits and vegetables from our garden) enhanced the otherwise sometimes negative coley . I shall cook this again!
