White Fish Fillets in Sauce Made With White Vinegar

"This recipe has been made in my family since my grandmothers days- I am not sure of the origins but it could be some fusion recipe - maybe it was my grandmothers own creation but its a favorite with our family. Any firm fleshed white fish can be used. This goes well with rice or pasta or just with some good hearty home made bread"

  • Garnish with the fresh chopped cilantro.
