    The combination of browned butter from frying the fish plus shallots, sea beans and sherry vinegar makes a quick and easy but very delicious sauce. That sauce will also enhance most any steamed veg that might be served on the side. I was lucky to find foraged sea beans at my local farmers market and had a mild white fish (Pacific grenadier) on hand so that's what I used. I wouldn't hesitate to try this with the alternatives (capers, caper berries or pickled sea beans)
