- Meanwhile heat the grapes in the reserved wine and let them simmer for a minute.
- Take the dish from the oven and pour the sauce into the pan with the grapes.
- Beat the egg yolks together in a bowl and add a little of the sauce to them, mixing well, to the pan and let the sauce thicken without boiling and then add the cream, taste and check for seasoning.
- Carefully take out the fillets of sole from the casserole and arrange on a platter, pour the sauce around them.
- Decorate with more grapes by slicing them in half and arranging them on top of the fillets.
