7 Popular Fish Dishes For When Meat Is Off The Menu

We all know that fish is a good source of healthful omega-3 fats, making it an important part of every diet. In addition, fish dishes are healthy alternatives if you try to cut down on meat consumption or follow certain dietary restrictions.

If your knowledge of fish meals is limited, we’re here to solve that. Check below for the list of popular fish dishes you can try at ChefOnline.

  1. Fish and Chips

One way or another, this traditional English dish is going to make it in this list. Fish and chips are a solid favorite across the nation. It may be an obvious choice, but you can continue enjoying this recipe with the variations made from the usual fish and chips dish. Many restaurants have this on their menu, incorporating different takes on this classic. The fish fillets are usually dipped in a batter made from flour, milk, and eggs before being deep-fried in oil.

  1. Tweed Kettle

A Scottish classic that is among the most popular dishes frequently served. It is also called salmon hash and made by poaching salmon and typically served in a savory fish broth. The fish is initially simmered together with spring onions and fresh herbs. Potatoes and mushrooms are usual sides that go well with this meal.

  1. Kippers

Another traditional fish recipe that’s preferably eaten during breakfast, Kipper, is a tempting addition to this list. It is made from gutted and halved herring, with salt to season, and then left to cold-smoke over woodchips. Salt is used to keep the fish from spoiling. Meanwhile, the smoke makes it shrink, allowing the flavors to be absorbed. It may be a lengthy process, but the savory and highly nutritious finished product makes it worthwhile.

  1. Ardglass Potted Herring

It is a classic dish that originated from Northern Ireland. The dish is prepared by adding vinegar, spice berries, salt, pepper, and raw onions to a rolled Ardglass herring in a dish. It is then placed inside the oven to bake until the fish becomes crispy on top. Best recommended eating this dish together with crusty bread and butter.

  1. Finnan Haddie

A famous delicacy known in Scotland made from cold-smoked, flavored haddock. There are different ways to cook a Finnan Haddie. It can be poached in milk if consumed during breakfast or it can be grilled or roasted over high heat for lunch and dinner.

 

  1. Jellied Eels

More recognized as a traditional Cockney street food item, jellied eels are cheap but hearty dishes. It is cooked by chopping the eels before boiling together with herbs for half an hour then cooled. One can enjoy the jellied eels’ soft and delicate texture, which some say can be unpleasant at first. It has a unique flavour, similar to pickled herring minus the fishy scent.

  1. Priddhas an’ herrin’

Widely known as the national dish of the Isle of Man and probably the most popular out of all the Manx dishes. Ingredients include a herring, raw onions, and potatoes. Potatoes are then cooked with the herring that has been salted and left in the water to soak overnight. Once both ingredients are fully cooked and drained, it is served with slices of raw onions and butter if preferred.

 

Apart from its delectable taste, seafood being rich in protein it provides many health benefits and is generally a low-fat food choice. Don’t miss out on these dishes when you order at ChefOnline.
