Chef Mark Allen of Le Soir - Newton Highlands, MA
Adapted by StarChefs
Typically slices of beef or other meats are rolled up into roulades
and browned and braised. The technique can also be applied to
fish, opening up a whole new realm of dishes. The fish can be
prepared with any kind of spices or flavors before rolling.
STEP 1: "Butterfly" fresh fillet,
creating a thin, wide piece of fish.
STEP 2: Season fish and layer with desired ingredients.
STEP 3: Roll fish into a loin and tie with string.
STEP 4: Sear loin in sauté pan with butter
and finish off in oven.
