I cook mine in a yard sale red electric wok. I have a round screen that
keeps the fish just above the bubbling water. Steam them for ten minutes.
Put slices of lemon or onion or whatever spice you like. Slide the fillet
off with the wires so they don't tear. All soft fish will cook firm
(including sole) in an electric wok using water to steam. A very easy way
to cook, and consistent flaky fish every time. Great for any type of fish,
even firmer fleshed ones.
