Instructions to make Skate wing with a brown butter and caper sauce:
  1. It is crucial to check that your skate is fresh, insist on having a good sniff before you buy, if you detect any traces of ammonia do not buy (skate goes off very quickly) ok now you have lovely fresh skate wing pat dry thoroughly on clean tea towel or kitchen paper.
  2. Trim of the extremities now, cut through the thick piece of bone at one end as this serves no purpose for you, then I like to cut away the thin tip of the wing as this will just burn. Use kitchen scissors to cut away the frill as this will also burn before the rest of the wing is cooked.
  3. Season both sides of the fish well, pre-heat a frying pan on medium heat, add a little olive oil and carefully place the skate in away from you to prevent you getting splashed, keep checking the underside for colour, when golden brown gently turn it over in the pan, again away from you.
  4. Keep frying for a minute then add a knob of butter and baste.
  5. It is possible to cook the skate all the way in the pan, but I'm cooking 2 so as soon as both sides are golden brown remove the skate to an oven tray and repeat with the second wing (unless you have a pan big enough for both wings?) Place in the oven at 180c for about 6-8 minutes or until cooked which is when the flesh pulls away easily from the bone. Clean the pan and add all the remaining butter.
  6. Keep cooking the butter over a medium heat until it begins to brown, you can test by smell if it starts to smell biscuity and you see golden bubbles it is ready. You need to stop it from over caramelising now so add the lemon juice and turn the heat down to low.
  7. Add a good glut of olive oil followed by the capers and parsley
  8. Taste and adjust the seasoning to your liking, sit the skate on a large flat plate and spoon over a generous few spoons of sauce. I recommend serving with a tossed salad and new potatoes.
  9. In this first image you can see how the flesh pulls easily away from the bone and it should be juicy and succulent, when you've finished one side just flip it over and repeat.
