Oven Baked Lemon Butter Dover Sole

Welcome back!

Today, we have a delicious fish dish! This one is nice and lemon-y, and it's not too strong, so it makes for a light meal. The Dover sole is also sometimes called the common or black sole; there is a Pacific variety of sole that is rather different and not the kind used here. This fish is said to have naturally a light, buttery taste, so that makes sense in the context of this recipe.

Oven Baked Lemon Butter Dover Sole

Makes 4 servings

Ingredients:

2 pounds sole filet
Juice from one lemon
2-3 tablespoons butter, melted, or olive oil
1 tablespoon chopped parsley
Lemon slices
Salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

Take a baking pan to put the sole in and grease it.
Layer the sole in the pan. Try to get it as even as possible. If your sole is thicker, you may only need to do one layer.
Add the salt and pepper, lemon juice, and butter/olive oil.
Garnish with parsley and some lemon slices.
Bake it in the oven at 375°F for 20 minutes if you have multiple layers of sole or it's really thick, and 10-15 minutes if it's just a single, thinner layer.

You can see the first picture for our serving suggestion, with just some potatoes and broccolini. The fish turned out to be very tender and juicy, especially with the lemon juice and butter/olive oil. This was good to use with the broccolini, which had just been steamed.

Fig Crème Fraîche Cake

Welcome back! Today, we have a cake featuring an interesting fruit: the fig! Figs are typically eaten dried or in some processed form because they don't stay fresh for long, so making this dish out of fresh figs was quite nice. Once completed, the fig flavor blends in very well with the rest of the cake and creates a dessert that is flavorful but not overly rich.

Instant Pot Leg of Lamb

Welcome back! Today, we have another lamb recipe, this time for a different cut. It has the similar lamb flavor and also features the key ingredient of rosemary, but this recipe works nicely as a stew, so it's rather different from the other two. Fun fact, Greece is the top consumer of sheep meet per capita in the world, which makes sense as lamb is a common Mediterranean meat. Rosemary also originates from the Mediterranean, so it's a perfect combination! Instant Pot Leg of Lamb Makes 4 servings Ingredients: 4-5 pounds lamb leg (boneless) 1 onion, chopped 4 cloves garlic, minced 2 tablespoons olive oil 3 sprigs of rosemary and thyme, chopped Salt and pepper to taste 1 1/2 cup total of chicken stock and/or water (we used 1 cup chicken stock and 1/2 cup dry white wine) Other vegetables: potatoes, carrots, zucchini 2 tablespoons cornstarch A little water Directions: Dry the lamb with a paper towel. Then, tie it with some twine to keep everything together Season the lamb by rub...
