looking for fish

use

hello!


I am looking for a fish to cook and I want it to have these characteristics:


1) filleted, without any fishbones
2) thick pieces (thick fish), like 2 inches thick
3) with white and deep brown meat (you know some fish that have deep brown meat under their skin and deeper their meat changes to white)


can you tell me please which fish and where can I buy it?


it would be best, if it is available in supermarkets, either fresh or frozen


thanks!

Cod loin? Nice, on offer in Morrisons regularly.

The trouble with fish as nice as it is you need to take out a loan to buy it.

I recently tasted a nice fish in this form called snapper or something like that, is this cod loin similar?

go and have a look at the fish counter in a supermarket - or even better , speak to a local fish monger ( if there is one ) ?

Hi, we move threads if we think they’ll get more help elsewhere (please read the forum rule) so this post/thread has been moved to another board. If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com"]forumteam@moneysavingexpert.com[/EMAIL].

I’ve moved your thread from the ‘I wanna’ board to the ‘Old Style’ board, where it is better suited.

Hake is a very nice fish, cheaper than cod and less endangered, not sure if you can buy fresh Pollock, nice too but apparently not as easy to get unless you have a good fishmonger. Anything else would be very expensive.

Good luck with your hunt,
