lunch dish.

skate wings
½ onion, peeled and sliced
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 bay leaf
Teaspoon sweet paprika
Ground pepper
Pinch salt
For
the sauce:
1 tablespoon butter
½ onion, finely chopped
2 teaspoons clear honey
Small glass orange juice
Handful fresh parsley, chopped
Squeeze lemon juice
Method

a large saucepan of water, add the onion, paprika, salt
