How to Make Sole Rolls Poached In Milk

  1. **Prepare the Platter:** Line a serving platter with fresh baby spinach leaves. Arrange tomato slices around the edge of the spinach. Sprinkle with salt, pepper, and 2 tablespoons of chopped green onions. Set aside.
  2. **Make the Filling:** Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a medium frying pan over medium heat. Sauté 1/2 cup finely chopped onion until softened, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add 1/2 cup chopped tomatoes, 1 cup packed fresh spinach, 1 tablespoon capers, and 1/2 cup ricotta cheese. Cook, stirring, for 1 minute, or until heated through. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  4. **Prepare the Sole:** Gently squeeze the juice of 1/2 lemon over 2 (6-ounce) sole fillets. Sprinkle with 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill.
  5. Spread the cooled filling evenly over each sole fillet. Starting at the tail end, tightly roll each fillet like a jelly roll. Secure with toothpicks if necessary.
  6. **Poach the Rolls:** Add 1 cup of milk to the same frying pan used for the filling. Bring to a gentle simmer, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom.
  7. Carefully add the sole rolls to the milk, seam-side down. Spoon milk over the rolls.
  8. Cover the pan and simmer for 10-12 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  9. **Garnish & Serve:** Sprinkle the rolls with 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese. Carefully transfer the rolls to the center of the prepared platter.
  10. Cut each roll in half. Drizzle a little of the reduced milk over the platter and fish. Sprinkle with remaining chopped green onions. Serve immediately.
