S/P TT
Egg wash

1/4 Cup Green Peas
¼ cup sliced mushrooms
¼ cup diced tomatoes
2 ts capers
TT Sherry
Chopped Parsley
Roasted Garlic Bulb

Procedure:
Dredge Sole in flour, then in egg wash.  Sauté in olive oil, presentation side down first!!! Brown nicely, then flip and let finish under small flame. Take out of pan and set aside.  (Preferably   on top of oven to keep warm,)
In pan with olive oil add garlic, brown slightly add mushrooms, tomatoes, deglaze with sherry add peas and capers.  Adjust seasonings.  Place on heaping portion of risotto, and place roasted garlic as garnish, top with chopped parsley
Basic Risotto Recipe

½ cup arborio rice
15 oz chicken stock
1/8 cup white wine
TT onion diced
1 Tbsp unsalted butter
1/4 Tbsp olive oil
TT cup grated Parmesan cheese
TT chopped parsley
Kosher salt, to taste

Preparation:
Heat the stock to a simmer in a medium saucepan, then lower the heat so that the stock just stays hot.
In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat the oil and 1/2 Tbsp of the butter over medium heat. When the butter has melted, add the chopped shallot or onion. Sauté for 2-3 minutes or until it is slightly translucent.
Add the rice to the pot and stir it briskly with a wooden spoon so that the grains are coated with the oil and melted butter. Sauté for another minute or so, until there is a slightly nutty aroma. But don't let the rice turn brown.
Add the wine and cook while stirring, until the liquid is fully absorbed.
Add a ladle of hot chicken stock to the rice and stir until the liquid is fully absorbed. When the rice appears almost dry, add another ladle of stock and repeat the process.
Note: Clamart (French pronunciation: [kla.maʁ]) is a commune in the southwestern suburbs of Paris, France. It is located 8.7 km (5.4 mi) from the center of Paris.
The town is divided into two parts, separated by a forest: bas Clamart, the historical centre, and petit Clamart with urbanization developed in the 1960s replacing pea fields. (so when something has Clamart in the recipe name, count on there being PEAS present)
