RACCORDO DELLA SUOLA FIORENTINO

Yea! Yea! First Football game tonight.  I can hardly wait.  You all know by now that I am a huge Football fan, and this is the best time of the year, because I have Football and Baseball for a few weeks.  Not to mention that my Yankees are in first place.  So it's definitely Happy Time for me.

Today I have a wonderful Filet of Sole recipe for you.  I love Sole because it is never fishy and no matter how you prepare it, it is always wonderful.  This recipe is also a good way to get your kids to eat some spinach too.  My kids used to love this dish when they little.  Try it soon.

RACCORDO DELLA SUOLA FIORENTINO
FILET OF SOLE FLORENTINE

Mornay Sauce
4 tablespoons of butter
1/3 cup of flour
3 cups of milk
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
3 tablespoons grated Gruyere
2 to 3 tablespoons heavy cream

Melt the butter and add the flour stirring constantly.  Heat the milk to lukewarm and stir into the mixture slowly stirring all the while.  Slowly add the cheese and stir.  Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of the cream.  Stir over med heat stirring constantly until it almost boils, but does not boil.  Turn off and set aside.

Sole
6 pieces of Filet of Sole
1/ 1/2 cups chopped mushrooms
1/2 of a sweet onion chopped fine
About 1/4 cup of butter
2 bunches of fresh. washed spinach
Parmesan cheese

Cook the mushrooms and onions in the butter until they are soft but not mushy.  Spread onto the Filets and gently roll them up.  In a skillet, put about 2 tablespoons of olive oil, quickly saute the spinach, just for a minute or two.  Arrange in a baking dish and place the filet rolls on top.  Add 1/2 tsp of nutmeg to the Mornay Sauce and pour over the Fish and Spinach.  Sprinkle with some Parmesan cheese.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 to 25 mintues.

This may sound complicated, but it really is simple.  It is also delicate and delicious!  Glass of White Wine is perfect with this dish!

Thanks for stopping in today
