Monkfish tail fillets 
180 - 200g (3-4 fillets per pack)

Hand-prepared by our fishmonger - ready to cook - bought at Newlyn Fish Market.

Fresh monkfish tail fillet has a mildly sweet taste and a firm, dense texture which means it doesn't flake. You can cook monkfish in many ways, and its firmness makes it a great fish for pies, stews or curries. 

It has delicious tasting meat, similar to that of lobster which is due to its diet of shellfish such as crabs, lobsters and other crustaceans.

"There is no other fish like it. It satisfies a universal desire for for firm, meaty, boneless fish. Particularly suited to chargrilling and is also great in curries because it remains intact after cooking." - Rick
