Clean and prepare the fish by washing the whole fish or fish cut in clean cold water. |
Prepare some seasoned flour and dip the fish on both sides in the flour and shake well to remove excess flour. |

Heat some butter that has been clarified in a sauté pan and cook the fish presentation side first. Oil or margarine can be used instead of butter. |
The fish is cooked on the presentation side first to maintain the presentation qualities of the piece of fish. Turn using a fish slice or preferably a long, wide bladed palette knife. |
Most of the rules regarding cleaning of equipment and safety aspects of deep frying apply to Sauté. |
