Say this to the waiter (French)
Sans farine pour le poisson, s'il vous plaît, ou juste un minimum. Je préférerais des légumes verts vapeur ou sautés, à la place des pommes de terre ou du riz.
Please, no flour dredging on the fish, or very minimal. I'd like steamed or sautéed green vegetables instead of potatoes or rice.
Watch out for
Flour dredging on the fish, traditional potato or rice sides.
