Fresh whole WILD John Dory / Saint-Pierre 290 aed/kg - 1 to 2 kg - price will be adjusted as per final weight

The subtle flavours of John Dory require a punchy sidekick. Blend plenty of coriander and garlic in a food processor with one part lemon juice to two parts extra virgin olive oil and drizzle the mixture over the pan-fried fillet. Alternatively, brush a little harissa paste over the fish before roasting it in the oven. Pop half a lemon into the roasting tray, then squeeze it over the roasted fillet before serving - the juice will be pleasantly sweet and sticky. John Dory's firm flesh does not flake apart when fried, making it a perfect ingredient for that most British of suppers: fish and chips. Whip up a light tempura batter, substituting sparkling water for ice cold beer. Add just enough liquid to the flour for the mixture to have the consistency of double cream. Heat the oil thoroughly, then deep-fry the batter-coated fish fillets until crisp and bubbling.
