French term
filet de perotte (?)
French to English
Other
Food & Drink
In a French menu, of otherwise fairly standard items, is the following:
Filet de perotte et ses légumes.
The text was sent by fax and is not totally clear, perotte may not be the exact spelling. Or it may be a typo. I can't find any mention on the internet or in my various culinary dictionaries of 'perotte' or guessed variations such as 'perotto', porrotto', etc.
Anyone able to help?

filet de perche ?? = perche fillet
If you look at the spelling, this might be it, a fish fillet...

: No "e" on "perch" in English.//I wanted to prevent propagation of the mistake. I agree that it's one possible reconstruction of the text, but any reconstruction is going to be a long shot.

just a typing error, when you're used to type in French... I thought peer grading concerned the answer, like "agree but perch is written without an 'e'" - do you agree abt the answer, or not ?

Comment: "Having ust heard back from the client, it was in fact a major typo - 'perotte' (no such word of course) instead of... 'perche'. Full marks to Elisabeth Toda-v. Galen for great detective work, even clairvoyance. Thanks as always to all other contributors."

cf infra. - déchard
l'éthymologie semble être "à côté" "oreille" (comme dans otorhino ou otarie....)
donc peut être la "joue" ou un autre morceau près des oreilles...
