Wild Gurnard Fillets are a true South West speciality, landed fresh at Brixham Fish Market and known for their striking pink skin and firm, flavoursome flesh. This underrated British fish is both distinctive and delicious.
Why it’s special: Sourced from local day boats operating off the South Devon coast, our gurnard is prepared to order by skilled fishmongers and never previously frozen. Valued by chefs, it offers outstanding freshness and quality.
Quality & versatility: With a mildly sweet flavour and firm texture, gurnard fillets are well suited to a variety of cooking methods including pan-frying, roasting, or adding to hearty stews and curries.
Serving inspiration: Pan-fry with butter, garlic, and thyme until the skin crisps, or use in a rustic fish stew with tomatoes, fennel, and white wine for a Mediterranean touch.
