How to Cook Fish

by Myrtle Reed

BROILED TURBOT À LA PROVENCE

Soak the fish for four hours in a marinade of oil and lemon-juice, seasoned with sliced carrot, onion, bay-leaf, thyme, parsley, and garlic. Drain, broil the fish on one side, and put in a buttered baking-dish with the marinade. Add two cupfuls of white wine, and bake, basting frequently. Take up the fish, and add the remainder of the bottle of wine to the liquid. Boil for five minutes, rub through a sieve, thicken with butter and flour cooked together, season with anchovy paste, minced parsley, and capers. Pour over the fish and serve.
