I make it once a week. None of that frozen Birdseye-covered-in-breadcrumbs-straight-out-of-the-freezer-and-into-the-oven rubbish.

I tend to buy seabass, tuna steak, squid, what ever, season it myself, pan fry/oven it for 20 or so minutes with some fresh vegetables and it's done.

What say you?

Usually at least once or twice a week.

This week though we've had some sea bass, smoked haddock and sweetcorn chowder, and a fish curry.

Plus have had mackerel a couple of days for lunch.

Love shellfish too, particularly king prawns and scallops.
 
vertually never as i dont really like it, which kinda sucks as im a keen sea fisherman and im off wreck fishing for cod+pollock on friday (caught a 13 lb cod + 8 lb pollock last time)

Not often but tats because I do nt understand fish if that makes sense ?

I don't like oily strong fish , but do like mussels , oysters ,salmon and seabass but never sure what to do with them
 
I usually have a whole packet of fresh boneless Trout once a week, and a packet of Salmon fillets once a week.

I have a tin of Mackerel 2 times a week.

I usually put lemon juice on the Trout and Salmon, wrap it in foil, oven cook for 12 mins and serve with microwave veg and rice. I'm not very well-versed at cooking, but I'm learning, slowly.

Kind regards,

David
 
Twice a week. Usually get cobbler, trout or salmon. Often have prawns as well. If I go to the fish monger (rarely, it's a bit out of the way) then I just get whatever is freshest and looks tasty that day.

Fresh fish is expensive and I don't like the look of fancy fish*.

One exception is tuna which I'll have in pasta twice/week and maybe in a toasted panini for lunch.


* If it ain't cod it's fancy to me
 
I eat quite a lot of tuna at work probably about 5-6 times a week for breakfast and/or lunch.

Also have fish at home for dinner probably about once a week.
 
I like salmon which I'll usually have with some jerk seasoning or fajita seasoning and some rice or with hollandaise sauce and new potatoes and asparagus. The exact same also works with trout.

Tuna I like to do medium rare with salsa and some rice again...

Mackerel on toast, king prawn wraps, anchovies (not tinned ones) in a bagel...

Mussels are also good but I'd rather have those out at a restaurant than cook at home.
 
despise fish, cannot abide anything form the sea, just awful, the fishy taste is rancid, poisoned by the smell of fish stall as a child i think

never is the answer :D, a shame as i love the gym and fish is about the best source of protein and good oils/fats

This may sound silly, but decent, fresh fish should never smell "fishy" !
 
its not so much the smell these days, that was more when i was a child and what did scar me.

general taste of sea food is not appealing, a shame really
