Any special requests or instructions can be left in the NOTES section at the Checkout. Eg: Your doorbell does not work, you require a phone call before the order arrives, you would like the fillets / steaks vacuum packed seperately or cut into smaller portions etc.

While hake is a slow growing fish, they are serial spawners, and this makes them incredibly resilient to fishing pressures. In fact, even hake caught through trawling is rated green by SASSI, but in line with our commitment to doing the least harm possible we exclusively source our hake from long line fishermen, for the most ecologically friendly catch possible. And better quality than trawlers.

Pan fried Hake with lemon and butter sauce

You will need:

• 4 x 150g hake fillets, skin on and boned
• 1 tablesp. olive oil
• Salt and freshly ground pepper
• 50g butter
• ½ lemon, pips removed
• 1 tablesp. chopped mixed herbs (parsley, chives and tarragon)

Preparation:

1. Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan and add the seasoned hake fillets, skin side down.
2. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the skin is just beginning to crisp, then add little knobs of butter to the pan around each hake fillet and cook for another minute until the skin is crisp.
3. Turn the hake fillets over and cook for another 3-4 minutes until cooked through.
4. This will depend on the thickness of the fillets. Transfer to warmed plates while you make the sauce.
5. Add the rest of the butter to the frying pan and allow it to gently melt over a moderate heat.
6. When it has melted, add a squeeze of lemon juice and the herbs, swirling to combine.
7. Season to taste.
8. Spoon this sauce over the hake fillets and serve with steamed broccoli and some sautéed new potatoes.
