From St. Wolfgang, Austria: Almond Butter Fish
GoneFishing

A visit to a fairy tale village and a tiny restaurant where the owner shows me her customer-favorite fish dish.


Ingredients:

4 fresh fish fillets

Salt

Flour

Vegetable oil

1/2 cup almond slices

3 tablespoons + 1 tablespoon butter, divided

Orange and/or lemon slices for garnish


Recipe:

Salt both sides of the fish and dip in flour.  Heat a little vegetable in a skillet and brown fish, turning when the edges start to turn white.  Meanwhile, roast almonds in a dry pan and remove to a dish.  Melt 3 tablespoons butter and return almonds to pan.  When the fish is almost done, add 1 tablespoon butter to the pan.  Plate the fish, garnish with the almonds and orange slices.  She likes to serve it with steamed potatoes and vegetables.  Serves 2.
