What is a l' orly?
it has something to do with french cooking and i can not find the term anywhere.
Answers:
Orly is a suburb of Paris, so l'orly means "in the style of Orly" more or less. It usually is used for fish, like whiting, that has been soaked in lemon juice, breaded and fried, then served with a tomato sauce. I've also seen it used for eel, vegetables or even beef on occasion.

If you type l'orly in yahoo search all the recipes that come up are battered and fried. this seems to be the definition.
à l'Orly is a French cooking term used to describe a preparation method usually used with fish fillets.
The fillets are skinned, battered and deep fried.
The usual accompaniment on the side is tomato sauce.
