Preparation & Chef’s Recommendations
Preparing your Seafood Xpress Turbot is a rewarding culinary journey. Here is how to honour this premium fish:The Secret to Crispy Skin: Pat the skin completely dry with paper towels before cooking. Our fish arrives cleaned and descaled, ready for the heat.
Oven Mastery: For a 1.8–2 kg whole fish, we recommend roasting at 200°C. Make shallow scores on the dark side of the skin and tuck in lemon slices and thyme. Bake for 20–25 minutes until the flesh is opaque.
Butter Basting: If pan-finishing, use foaming butter, garlic, and a sprig of rosemary. Constantly spoon the hot butter over the fish to achieve a rich, golden glaze and deep flavour.
Resting is Key: Allow the fish to rest for 5 minutes after cooking; this ensures the juices redistribute for a melt-in-the-mouth experience.
A Centrepiece to Remember: The unique, majestic shape of a 1.8–2 kg Turbot makes it a stunning centrepiece. We recommend serving it whole on a large platter, garnished with roasted vine tomatoes and a side of Hollandaise sauce or a simple lemon-butter emulsion to complement its natural buttery sweetness.
