Christmas Tree 4003 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Been getting into to Fish lately. Only ever eaten proper fish when I used to eat out on business. Anyway, bought some lovely fresh salmon over the last few days from Asda. All wrapped up with various "fillings". One was a Thai effort and the other a mozzarella with a tomato and basil stuffing. Both delicious. Two decent portions for £4 Going to work through several varieties over the next week or two and try and settle on a few nice combinations. Any recommends welcome.

Monkfish wrapped in parma ham is piss easy to make so I think it would be right up your street. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might only be a few weeks left of some good outdoor cooking action, but I bought one of these last year for cooking fish on the BBQ, love using it when I get the chance, gives fish a good smokey flavour Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christmas Tree 4003 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Fucking hell fist! Thank fuck Ive already eaten, Some nice suggestions to try cheers. Just had trout stuffed with spinach and ricotta. Very nice indeed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChezGiven 0 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Fish should be kept simple, I think with strong flavoured Trout you can add in things like you did there CT. I like it simple though, things like a rare seared tuna, fried salmon, roast or baked sea bass. Then pairing it with a top quality white of course.

Just getting into it tbh so these ones Ive had came ready stuffed from the fish counter. Think I had Tuna steak once in a restaurant and didnt like it. Quite fancy giving sea bass and monkfish a whirl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChezGiven 0 Posted September 1, 2013 Share Posted September 1, 2013 Over cooked tuna steak is ming ba ding. Seared really hot so its still rare in the middle is the only way to eat it. Or raw of course, had a lush tuna carpaccio the other week and always opt for it when having Japanese. Have you ever had Sushi CT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChezGiven 0 Posted September 2, 2013 Share Posted September 2, 2013 That's not entirely true, some fish is a bit over-powering when raw. If you dont eat white rice, then you dont have much of a choice when eating Japanese. Not sure what they would make of brown rice Our fishmongers is mint, it doesnt have a shop front as it supplies the main restaurants in our area but is open to the general public for 3 hours in the morning. Its just a windown down a back alley, first time i went i was not sure at all. We get some bat shit crazy stuff from there. We have Skate wings quite a bit (i needed to search for the English, known as aile de raie) which our lass does with capers and cooks in a stock of some sort.
