Can anyone recommend a type of fish?

Question

I've really been fancying some fish for tea lately. Tuna features in my diet quite a bit but I'm bored with its meaty texture and I'd like a more 'fishy' fish. I'm trying to watch what I spend so need something that isn't too pricey.

Any recommendations?

No 'your little brother's goldfish' suggestions, please. ;-)

Answer 1

Orange Roughy  

Answer 2

salmon

is the best

Answer 3

Smoked Haddock with poached eggs

Mackerel - grilled or soused

WHAT'S WITH ALL THE THUMBS DOWN ? ? ?

Oh - I've just realised - the kids are off school !

Answer 4

sea bass is lovely.

Answer 5

The various fish recommended already are good tasty suggestions.  Personally I would recommend going to a fishmonger, or at least a supermarket with a knowledgeable person on the fish counter, and asking them what's in season, fresh and inexpensive.

You may also want to buy fish from sustainable sources if you care about the environment and depletion of fish stocks. Many supermarkets promote "No Catch" fish and other alternatives to our traditional sea-caught old favourites.

Answer 6

Cod =D

Answer 7

get a good fresh piece of mackeral, (quite cheap to buy) then make up some Black Bean Sauce (you might be able to buy some ready made stuff from your local Chinese Fast Food Shop, ask for about 2-3 table spoons, uncooked) you might be able to get it for free too!

pan fry the fish until skin is crispy, season with a little salt to stop it from sticking to the pan, then keep warm in a oven while u prepare the Black Bean Sauce.

Put the BB sauce into a pan heat gently, with some diced onions (and chilli, Optional) when you can smell the aroma, its time to add water. (the ammount depends on how much sauce you want to make), season with a little salt and pepper and 'SUGAR' and DARK soy sauce, thicken with corn flour, and pour over the fish!

enjoy

Answer 8

I like salmon or halibut

Answer 9

mackerel is delicious and reasonably priced

I love lemon sole - a lot cheaper than dover sole with a lovely delicate flavour

Answer 10

Salmon... preferably wild (Pacific) Salmon... Atlantic Salmon is farmed and although it's good for you too and it's cheaper, it doesn't taste as good.

Answer 11

salmon

Answer 12

Answer 13

Cod.. Hake.. Trout.. Kipper.. Herring..  

Answer 14

sardines

Answer 15

I would recomend Salmon, as it is full of flavour, you can have it somked or just plain, you can buy it cold and eat it cold, or you could buy one that you have to cook, both very different in texture and a little bit in flavour. Also salmon is a very healthy and a non-fatty fish, which is great if you want to lose weight or just become more healthy, as salmon goes with just about anything. Its great in a salad. Plus its quite cheap to buy.  

Answer 16

Mackerel

flounder

tilapia

Whiting Fish

Cod

You can get whole frozen wlid Alaskan  salmon filet for $ 6.98.

Grill (medium heat) the salmon on a cedar plank (soaked in water or wine for 20 min) with lemon, salt, pepper and butter.

Answer 17

I don't know the correct translation to that fish, but in brazilian portuguese we name it "TRAÍRA". The "traíra filet" is the most delicious fish i have eaten in my live.
