SHOP LEMON SOLE

1) Put the semolina on a plate. Season the sole fillets with salt and pepper and then turn over in the semolina to lightly coat.  

2) Heat the olive oil over a moderate heat and shallow fry the sole fillets for a couple of minutes until lightly golden and just cooked through.

3) While the sole is cooking, assemble the salad and then tuck the pieces of warm sole in amongst the leaves, dress with some of the dressing. Serve immediately.
