Sole, or Flounder
River Shrimp Enhancement

I agree with you that sole, or what passes for sole, is bland and needs something. However, it does not need very much to make a tasty dish. 

In the days when I was cooking for a family of five I would poach the flounder, then sprinkle on a few cooked river shrimp, plus butter, garlic, and parsley. (The river shrimp are not very tasty, but enough so for a garnish.) This is simple, but effective. I think it more appropriate than a cream sauce or cheese sauce which would overwhelm the fish (as well as being more work.)
