Tandoori flavoured lemon sole with cucumber salad.
This is a very easy and fuss free recipe. No marinating required. Just rub the spice paste into the flesh of the lemon sole and you’re off.
I made this today for lunch. Lemon sole is so delicate it really doesn’t need much to taste amazing. I used to cook this recipe with a butter sauce but nowadays I’m trying to eat a little healthier. Believe me, if you follow this recipe, you won’t be disappointed.
The key to success is in watching the fish as it cooks quite closely. I grilled my sole fillets under a hot grill for about five minutes. When the fish begins to flake and is still quite moist, it’s ready to serve.
With regard to serving, I decided to have this with a cucumber salad drizzled with a little olive oil and balsamic vinegar. A squeeze of lemon just before digging in was all this dish needed.
I used my own brand of smoked tandoori powder. You can make the unsmoked version here or just purchase a good quality tandoori powder.
Lightly spiced and grilled until just cooked through.
