A adaptation of a family flounder dish. Tilapia is much cheaper and it went well with this stuffing. I particularly like mom's glaze over the top, it makes a mundane fish more special and elevates it to a company ready dish.

Ingredients
- 16 small to medium tilapia fillets, aim for the same size; you are making a tilapia sandwich with the stuffing.

- 1/2 teaspoon of dry mustard
- 1/2 teaspoon of dried dill weed

- In a large bowl, combine bread cubes, shallots dill, mustard, vermouth, artichokes and crabmeat.

- Top each tilapia with a scoop of filling, flatten slightly.
- Top with remaining tilapia fillet (match up sizes if you can)
- Sprinkle with more salt and pepper and some more dill.
- Cover with foil tent. Bake in oven for 15 minutes.
- While fish is in oven, make glaze. Beat yolk and salt until foamy.
- Gradually add in 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
- Mix remaining butter with 2 teaspoons of lemon juice and add to the egg yolk mixture. Fold in the whipped cream.
- Pull stuffed fish out of oven, remove foil
- Turn oven to broil Spoon a generous spoon of glaze over each fish piece. Sprinkle with bread crumbs and parmesan cheese.
- Broil until golden brown and toasted.
- .“Fish, to taste right, must swim three times -in water, in butter, and in wine.”
- Polish proverb

Do you think it would be ok if I used Olive oil for half of the required butter amount?
