Notes
- *Substitute any light flaky fish like turbot, skate, whiting, trout or Dover sole.
- **Substitute vegetable oil or clarified butter if you wish.
- Thicker fish filets may need a bit more cooking time.
- A stainless steel frying pan or saucepan works best to make the brown butter meunière sauce.
- Make sure to give the butter enough time to cook. The water in the butter needs to cook off so the milk solids can brown.
