Fried plaice fillet with prawns and lumpfish roe
Fried plaice fillet with prawns and lumpfish roe © kvalifood.com
A breaded plaice fillet gives a crispier surface than one simply fried in butter. Combined with peeled prawns and lumpfish roe, you get some of the best from Danish fishing waters on a single piece of bread. Crème fraîche binds it without overpowering anything.
