TOPIC: Small redfin whole
Small redfin whole 2 years ago #83619
|
Hi all,
Got put onto this by Lord Blackbilly - and its a winner. Just tried it tonight - taking small redfin, scaling them, head off and frying them whole, then eating off the bone. Comes up a treat - probably better than fillets IMO. I cooked half a dozen fish around 20-25cm.  Give away the big ones and eat the bubs I reckon  So instead of throwing away the small ones, give it a crack next time. |

Total killer I reckon - I just did them with S+P and lemon. Paprika next time. Not like small reddies are in any great shortage either. With a knife they are scaleable, not the easiest fish to do but it works, made a hell of a mess. |

An easy way to skin a reddie is to hang them until the skin dries out then just peel the shin back as your running a sharp knife between skin and flesh. cheers wes  |
