Dover Sole (Whole Fish)

From £21.50 Per Fish £47.78 per KG

Dover sole is the 'king' among smaller flat fish. It is delicious, easy to cook and sustainable. It does fetch a hefty premium over other soles due to the high demand it garners. As a special treat we think it is absolutely worth it! Traditionally it is cooked on the bone, but it works very well off the bone too. We can prepare the whole fish to suit your dish, either whole or pan-ready, with dark skin on or off depending on your taste. One whole fish is enough for a sharing starter for 2 or a generous main course for 1.
