Although salmon is quite expensive, it is extremely good for you and it tastes out of this world. This easy method of crusting the fish in cracked black pepper and pan frying it is perfect for a healthy weekend night dinner option.
I love cooking with red stumpose, it has a similar taste to hake but it’s a bit firmer. I decided to bake it in the oven with some delicious veggies and sauce. This is the perfect week night dinner, it is healthy and takes no time to cook.
This recipe is so gorgeous, the crunchy almonds, fragrant artichokes and basil really compliment the Gurnard.
If you feel like a refreshing and healthy meal, this is definitely the recipe for you! It takes no time to make and the Asian flavours are mind-blowing.
Snoek is the most delicious fish, especially when it is slightly smoked. It is one of South Africa’s great dishes. If you are lucky enough to get a fresh snoek, here’s how to prepare and cook it to perfection. I would suggest buying it either from your fish monger or Woolworths, they butterfly it for you.
This dish is super easy to make and you can use this sauce for absolutely everything! The trick is to buy the best fresh fish from your fishmonger.
