Red mullet fillets

• From the south coast of the UK
• Boneless fillets, beautifully trimmed
• Suggested recipe: Pan-fried red mullet on crushed potatoes
• Suggested main course serving - 150g - usually this will be 2 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. A good main course serving would be 150g per person. We normally source our red mullet from the day boats of Cornwall and Devon. 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 red mullet, scale them, fillet them and pin bone by hand, ensuring every fillet is prepared to a high standard.
