      • Our British caught Gurnard Fillet has a delightful neutral and understated aroma. Its firm, muscular texture is similar to that of the monkfish. 

        Once considered as a bait for crab and lobster fishing, the humble Gurnard has come a long way in culinary terms. The firm texture takes to strong flavours well making it perfect for use in curries and stews. However, Gurnard should not be overlooked as a star in its own right. We love to simply pan-fry, making sure the skin is super crispy.

        Gurnard are large headed, prehistoric looking fish, heavily armoured with spines around the body for protection. They can be found in increasing stocks around the British Isles. 

         

        Approx 150g per fillet. 1 fillet per pack.
