Eel simmered in a green sauce of finely chopped fresh herbs, a dish of the Flemish Scheldt valley, normally served hot with chips or bread and lemon.
Paling in 't groen, or anguilles au vert in French, is a Belgian dish from the Flemish Region, mainly along the Scheldt between Dendermonde and Antwerp. The eel is simmered with finely chopped fresh herbs, and it is normally served hot with chips or bread and a squeeze of lemon. The local river eel has become rare because of pollution, so wild eel is usually imported. In Bruges, Breydel-De Coninck lists eel 'in green' with a herb sauce, and De Stove serves fried eel and eel in cream.
