Red mullet fillets

Red mullet is one of the finest fish but specimens large enough to fillet are pretty rare, so - sorry - we are often out of stock. Naturally, this is always cold water red mullet. We don’t use that similar-looking but not-quite-right tropical red mullet. You may want two fillets per person as they are quite small fillets. We recommend a serving of 150g per person, generally, our packs average around 160g. We source our red mullet from the day boats of Cornwall either via Plymouth fish market or wholesalers who know the quality we're after. Whilst red mullet is technically a 'white-fish' it's got a stronger flavour than other white fish and higher oil content. We buy extremely fresh whole red mullet, scale them, fillet them and hand pin bone them making sure each fillet is prepared to a high standard.
