Sand Sole - Frozen
Sand Sole is a flat fish which is similar to Dover Sole in both appearance and taste. It has nice small flakes and firm flesh. Never a guaranteed catch, it is well worth taking advantage when they are landed and trying this wonderful specie.
All the fish in our frozen section was caught at its best and flash frozen at the quayside. When it arrives at your home you can put it in the freezer to enjoy another day (even if partly defrosted) or put in your fridge and enjoy it within the next 2-3 days as you would with our fresh fish.

Cooking techniques
HOW TO OVEN ROAST A WHOLE FISH: Fish likes heat. Preheat your oven to 220˚C/200˚C Fan/425˚F/Gas Mark 7. Rub your fish with olive oil, then salt, and make a few slashes in the flesh, right down to the bone – diagonal slashes look good. Add some rosemary or thyme to the slashes if you have some to hand or stuff the herbs into the cavity of the fish.
Put the fish on a roasting tray and place in the oven. As a guide, (all ovens are different, you know yours better than me) a 450g whole fish will feed 1 person and take around 12-15 mins to cook. A 1 – 1.2kg fish, serving 4, will take around 30 minutes.
To make an instant sauce add the following to the baking tray: chopped fresh tomatoes, a pinch of dried chilli flakes, a good splash of white wine, a few slivers of sliced garlic, and herbs such as thyme, bay, parsley or chives. Serve the cooked fish with lemon wedges.
