    A DELICATE, FLAVOURFUL SOUTH AFRICAN CLASSIC

    The Cape Yellowtail is famed for its high fat content, which makes it one of the best sources of omega-3 fatty acids of any fish. In South Africa yellowtail are associated with the annual sardine run, when they leave their deep-water spawning grounds to feast. Our yellowtail is low impact, wild caught by artisanal, handline fishermen off Struisbaai, Cape Point and up the west coast.

  • Fishwife Recipes

    Classic Yellowtail Braai

    Preparing yellowtail on the braai imparts a smoky flavour that beautifully compliments this delicious fish. Let The Fishwife show you how. You will need:

    • 750g Greenfish Yellowtail Fillet, skin on (plus minus 250g per person)
    • A few knobs of Butter
    • 2-3 teaspoons of crushed Garlic
    • Salt & Pepper

    Preparation:

    1. Place the fillet on the braai grid skin side down and season with salt and pepper. Spread a few teaspoons of crushed garlic over the fillet and place a couple of knobs of butter on top.
    2. Place the grid high above the coals on a medium heat and braai skin side down. Cooking on a medium heat high above the coals will prevent the skin from burning. You will see the meat change from translucent pink to white. Cook until you can see this colour change has just gone past halfway (this process will take approximately 15 -18 minutes).
    3. Flip the grid over so that the flesh side is now above the coals and cook for approximately 3-5 minutes until almost done. When the fillet looks 95% cooked remove from the heat as it will continue to cook once taken off the coals.
    4. Enjoy with friends!

          ...new wife...

          My first time buying from Greenfish, but I was not disappointed! The yellowtail fillets were fantastic. The only problem now is that I have a new wife - "Fish wife, I love you!"

          Yellowtail fillets

          As usual, delicious is an understatement. I swear the fish was still swimming the night before I received it - beautifully fresh. We braaied the one fillet (it was huge) on the Weber and I am still deciding how to prepare the other one. WIll probably make a lekker Durban fish curry!

          Immaculate service.

          As somebody who has had experience as a chef in some of the worlds best restaurants , I would just like to applaud you and your team on such outstanding service. I understand top tier service like this for the likes of La Colombe , but when I placed my order at 9am from my couch in Somerset West and then received the most delicious and fresh fillets of yellowtail within a few hours, which already had the pin bones removed! I was lost for words. Absolutely outstanding.
