Product Description
Firm, meaty and with a sweet, clean flavour, monkfish is unlike any other fish on the British coast. Its dense, boneless tail flesh has a texture closer to lobster than most white fish, which is why it has long been a favourite in professional kitchens.
This is a fish that suits confident cooking. Roast the tail on the bone for a dramatic centrepiece, cut into portions and pan-fry for a golden crust, or skewer and grill over a high heat. It holds its shape exceptionally well and stands up to strong flavours including chorizo, curry spices and bold marinades. Hard to overcook and easy to work with.
Our monkfish tails are sourced through Brixham Fish Market, landed fresh from the South West coast. Prepared to order by our fishmongers, with nothing sitting in stock, and sent out fresh on your chosen delivery day. Always fresh and never previously frozen, so you can freeze it at home if needed.
Try it in our Easy Monkfish Kebabs.
