Turbot

Turbot is sometimes known as the king’s fish and with good reason. Turbot is hard to beat in terms of flavour and texture, making it an extremely popular fish for restaurants and dinner parties. It might not be cheap but it is sensational. Turbot has a soft buttery texture with a subtle salty flavour, the key when cooking is to let the turbot do the work, with simple flavours that elevate it rather than compete with it. We love it simply cooked with sea herbs and lemon, or roasted with fennel bulbs.
