Description

This variety of Sole offers a clean, almost sweet flavor profile with a fine flake. It’s often pan-seared with lemon and coriander in Egyptian coastal towns or gently baked with butter and parsley in Cairo’s finer establishments.

Because of its slender form, it cooks quickly and evenly — delivering a melt-in-the-mouth experience with a crisp outer finish when fried.

Sole is known to be rich in selenium and low in fat, making it a good choice for light, healthy meals. It’s also suitable for kids and elders due to its soft texture and easy digestibility.

Its taste is refined yet forgiving — allowing home cooks to experiment with sauces and sides without overwhelming the main star.

Egyptian Sole is an understated delicacy — quiet, elegant, and infinitely adaptable.
