Steps
To prepare this plaice fillet in a potato crust, first peel the potatoes and slice them very thinly with a mandolin or a knife, being very careful.
Place the potato slices, without overlapping them, on a sheet of kitchen paper, and pat them dry with another sheet to dry them well.
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper, place the potato slices, the plaice fillets, season with a pinch of salt, a little pepper, and some rosemary and parsley. Cover the fillets with the other sliced potatoes.
Season again with salt and pepper. Put the oil in a small bowl, and brush the potatoes with the oil so they are evenly coated.
Bake in a preheated oven at 392°F for about 20 minutes. Then switch to grill mode, at maximum power for 5 or 10 minutes, until the potatoes start to color, especially at the edges.
