Megrim sole, increasingly sold as Cornish sole, is a slim flatfish from the waters off the South West with soft white flesh and a mild, gently sweet flavour. For years most of the catch went to Spain, where it is cooked whole on the plancha, and it deserves the same attention here.
We prepare it at the Barnes counter to order, cleaned whole for cooking on the bone or filleted by hand. On the bone the thin fillets stay moister.
Grill or pan-fry a whole fish for three to four minutes a side, or flash fillets in butter for a minute a side. Lemon, parsley and the pan juices finish it.
Cut to order
Tell us how you want it in the order notes. Filleting, pin-boning and skinning are free, by hand at the counter. If you ask for a fish to be trimmed, headed or skinned, the finished weight comes down accordingly.
Delivery and collection
Order by 1pm for next-day delivery across London and the UK. Same-day collection in Barnes, usually about two hours.
