How to Cook Fresh King Fish?

Spicy King Fish Steaks (Pan-Seared): Marinate thick Kingfish steaks in turmeric, chili powder, lemon juice, and salt for 20 minutes. Pan-fry in hot coconut or vegetable oil for 4–5 minutes per side until crispy on the outside and moist inside.

King Fish Curry (Surmai Curry): Simmer thick cuts in a rich coconut milk, tamarind, and spicy masala curry base. The firm flesh soaks up all the spices without falling apart!

Gourmet BBQ: Brush steaks with garlic-herb butter or chili oil and grill over medium-high heat for a smoky, steak-like feast.
Can you clean and slice the King Fish for me?
Yes, absolutely! You can choose between "Cleaned & Gutted" or "Cut into Steaks" from the options above for a small preparation fee. Our in-house fishmongers will expertly clean, scale, and cut your fish fresh before packing.

Is King Fish suitable for making fish curry?
Yes, Kingfish is widely regarded as one of the best fish in the world for curries! Its firm texture prevents it from flaking apart while simmering in rich, spicy sauces.
