Recipe video above. Fish with crispy skin is one of the most delicious quick ways to cook a piece of protein! To nail it every time, you need dry skin, hot oil and to press down lightly to let the skin seal against the hot pan.I'm using Barramundi here but this recipe can be used for any fish with skin that goes crispy - see Note 1.Stove to oven method recommended for thick fillets so for most even cooking of flesh with super crispy skin - see Note 3. Thin fillets can be cooked entirely on the stove. Scoring the skin is recommended for thick fillets for even cooking of the flesh and skin, plus an insurance policy to prevent the skin from curling up.Sauces and sides - See Note 7!

Crispy, golden and mouth-watering tender rings of fried calamari work either as an appetizer or a light main course.

Quick cooking at high heat helps tenderize it, which is why it's often served as fried calamari.

As a huge seafood lover, for me there's nothing better than an indulgent fish dish. Certainly seafood can be healthy, but if I see a luxuriously creamy thermidor on the menu then I'll bound to choose it. Tasked to create a recipe featuring Barber's 1883 Vintage Reserve Cheddar as the star, I immediately thought of an oozing, cheesy thermidor with a hint of parsley and kick of mustard. In this case, I've mixed it up and created a more accessible king prawn and monkfish thermidor recipe which is served with hand cut chips and roasted tomatoes. See, you'll even be getting your five a day... For the Thermidor (Serves two) ♥ 2 medium monkfish fillets, cut into large chunks ♥ 100g cooked king prawns ♥ 30g butter ♥ 1 shallot, finely chopped ♥ 1 garlic clove, crushed ♥ 200ml vegetable stock ♥ 50ml double cream ♥ 30ml white wine ♥ 50g Barbers vintage cheddar, plus 20g for topping ♥ 1 tsp wholegrain mustard ♥ 1 tsp lemon juice ♥ Salt and pepper to season ♥ A handful of fresh parsley, chopped To accompany ♥ 150g Maris Piper potatoes, sliced and seasoned ♥ Tomatoes on the vine Step one. In a high heat, pan fry the monkfish with a little oil, salt and pepper until golden. Set aside. Step two. Next make the sauce, starting with caramelising the garlic and shallot on a low heat with the butter. Step three. When softened, add the stock, cream and white wine. Bring to the boil and then simmer for 10 minutes until thickened and reduced. Tip: If you want to have chips here, start baking them now on 180 degrees as they take around 30-45 minutes. Step four. Add in the cheese to the sauce and allow to melt, stirring continuously. Step five. Stir in the mustard and lemon juice. Season to taste then add in the parsley. Keep some aside for garnish. Preheat the oven to 180 degrees c, if needed. Step six. Mix together the prawns and monkfish with the sauce. Pour into ramekins and scatter the remaining cheddar on top. Add a little cracked black pepper. Step seven. Bake for 10 minutes alongside the chips. If you want tomatoes here, wrap them in foil with olive oil and bake here too. Step seven. Turn on the grill and finish off the topping for 5 minutes, until golden. You can keep the tomatoes and chips warm here on a lower shelf in the oven. Serve up with a sprinkle of parsley, stack of chips and tomatoes on the vine! Have you ever made a thermidor? What seafood would you try in the mix?
