Flemish Fishermens Salad Recipes

FLEMISH FISHERMEN'S SALAD

Steps:

• Soak the beans overnight.
• The next day, put the beans in boiling salted water with the onion (cut in two) and the savory.
• When they are all cooked but still firm, drain them and remove the onion and savory.
• Cook the potatoes in boiling salted water, peel and dice them.
• Dice the beets.
• Cut the kipper fillets into 1-inch strips and mix them in a salad bowl with the potatoes, beans and beets.
• Chop the shallot, parsley and gherkins and mix them into the mayonnaise and mustard.
• Spoon the sauce over the salad and mix carefully.

FILLET OF COD FLEMISH STYLE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F
• Melt the butter in a medium-size skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and lightly browned, about 8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Arrange half the onion in an ovenproof baking dish just large enough to comfortably hold the fish.
• Sprinkle half the parsley and chives over the onion. Arrange the fish fillets or steaks over the onion and season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Cover with the remaining onion, parsley, chives, the lemon slices, bay leaf, and thyme. Pour in the wine and bake until the fish is just done, about 20 minutes.
