Turbot is a large, diamond-shaped flatfish that lies on sandy and gravelly sea beds, with a mottled brown upper side studded with small bony knobs instead of scales. Whole fish carry a thick band of gelatinous skin and bone that gives body to sauces and stocks.
The flesh is firm, white and meaty, with a clean, gently sweet flavour that holds up to bold cooking. Because it keeps its shape well, turbot is a favourite for special dinners, whether roasted on the bone for a table to share or served as neat fillet portions with a butter sauce.
Suitable for
- Roasting whole
- Pan-frying
- Grilling
- Baking
- Poaching

Ideas
- Roast whole on the bone with brown butter and capers
- Pan-fried fillet with mussels and a cider cream sauce

How much to buy
About 400-500g of whole fish per person on the bone, or one 150-180g fillet portion per person.
Season
Available all year round, with the wild season running from April to February.

Chef's tip
Cook turbot on the bone where you can: the bone and skin keep the flesh moist and add flavour to the pan juices.
