Ingredients

Additionally, the remoulade sauce in Silesian cuisine is slightly different, with the addition of capers and herbs, giving it a unique flavor profile.

  • To make the dish healthier, you can bake the fish fillets instead of frying them.
  • Experiment with different types of fish, such as tilapia or sole, to vary the flavors.
  • Serve the fish fillets with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice for a burst of citrus flavor.
