Instructions

  1. After having cleared the fish from all skin and bone, divide it into square pieces of an equal size; brush them over with egg, sprinkle with bread crumbs mixed with a little minced parsley and seasoning.
  2. Lay the fillets in a baking-dish, with sufficient butter to baste with.
  3. Bake for 1/4 hour, and do not forget to keep them well moistened with the butter.
  4. Put a little lemon-juice and grated nutmeg to the cold lobster sauce; make it hot, and pour over the fish, which must be well drained from the butter.
  5. Garnish with parsley and cut lemon.
