Instructions
1. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat and add the bay leaves.

Notes
Obviously, you can use any fish that you can get in very thin fillets.

Comments
excellent thanks a lot! what would you serve this with usually?
A mess of garlicky greens (saute a minced clove of garlic in a little olive oil on medium-high for a minute or two, then add a bunch of washed but not dried greens (spring greens, swiss chard, kale, whatever), turn the heat down to medium, put the top on and allow to steam for maybe 5-7 minutes. Take the top off, put the heat back up, stir and let the leftover water evaporate, another 5 minutes or so.) and good bread is usually enough for me. Potatoes crisped in the oven would obviously be nice too.
oh I get it, better include a potato addendum for the Irishman!
i just made this with salmon - really good!
