Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups fish stock (see recipe)
1 1/3 pounds gray sole or flounder fillets
12 bay scallops
1 small carrot, peeled
1 small leek, white only, washed well
1/4 of a small celeriac (celery root), peeled
6 mushrooms
6 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 cup Vouvray
Salt and freshly ground white pepper
2/3 cup heavy cream
10 fresh basil leaves, coarsely chopped
Fresh lemon juice to taste

Steps:

  • Place the stock in a small saucepan and boil until it is reduced by two-thirds. Hold in a warm spot.
  • Cut the sole across the fillet into strips about three-quarters of an inch across. Slice the scallops in half horizontally. Set aside.
  • Cut the carrot, leek and celeriac into julienne strips about one inch by an eighth of an inch. Remove the stems from the mushrooms and thinly slice the caps.
  • Over medium-low heat, place the butter and half the Vouvray in a wide, shallow saucepan with a thick bottom or a skillet. When the butter is melted, add the carrot, leek and celeriac and cook until they're al dente, about five minutes. Add the mushrooms and season lightly with salt and pepper to taste.
  • Lay the sole strips over the vegetables and sprinkle with the remaining Vouvray and the fish stock. Season lightly again. Cover the pan and cook over medium heat for two minutes. Add the scallops and cook two minutes longer. The seafood should just turn white. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the fish and scallops to a warm plate. Add the cream and basil to the pan and boil vigorously until the sauce thickens. With the slotted spoon, remove the vegetables to the plate. Taste and season with salt, pepper and lemon juice to taste.
  • Serve on large plates, arranging the fish, scallops and vegetables attractively, then spooning the sauce over.

This recipe is way too expensive for me. I'll have to pass.

I'm not a big fan of seafood, but this recipe sounds interesting. I might give it a try.

I'm allergic to shellfish. Is there a substitute I can use?

This ragout was a disaster! The sauce was watery and bland, and the seafood was tough and rubbery. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

The scallop and sole ragout was good, but not great. The sauce was a bit too salty for my taste, and the seafood was a little overcooked. I think I would try a different recipe next time.

I made this ragout for a dinner party, and it was a huge success! Everyone raved about the flavor and texture. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a special dish to serve at their next gathering.

The scallop and sole ragout was easy to make and turned out delicious! The sauce was light and flavorful, and the seafood was tender and flaky. I served it over rice, and it was a hit with my family.

This scallop and sole ragout was an absolute delight! The flavors were perfectly balanced, and the seafood was cooked to perfection. I especially loved the crispy shallots on top. Will definitely be making this again!
