Sole and Salmon Roulades
Rouler means 'to roll' in French, hence the name roulade. In this elegant dish for special occasions, fillets of sole are rolled around delicate slivers of smoked salmon. The peas in the roulade sauce add bright color and a slightly sweet flavor. Serve with new potatoes and a selection of fresh vegetables. You will need a liquidizer for this recipe.
