Gutted Scaled Tilapia 800 - 1000gm

Description

Gutted Scaled Tilapia 800-1000gm comes already gutted and scaled in this larger size bracket — ready to season and cook once thawed, with no prep beyond rinsing. Tilapia's firm, mild flesh takes on spice well and holds together through grilling, frying or simmering in pepper soup.

How to prepare

• Thaw in the fridge, score the skin, season with ginger, garlic and pepper.
• Grill or fry whole until the flesh flakes easily, or add to a simmering pepper soup pot.
• Cook thoroughly until the flesh flakes and reaches 63°C internal.

Storage

• Keep frozen at -18°C until ready to use. Defrost in the fridge overnight — do not refreeze once thawed. Use within 24 hours of defrosting.
