Cooking red mullet

[Devon_fisher]

this fish is also very nice dipped in flour and fried until flour is browned a little.
tastes really good with chips and lemon juice yum

Never cooked or caught one myself but had battered red mullet with sweet chilli sauce (the Encona sweet chilli sauce I think)at a chippy in Fowey and it was gorgeous-a really good combination.

eat a lot of red mullet the other week in greece.
slowly fry the fish in shallow olive oil, the best you can get, the idea is not to burn the oil, turn the fish until cooked, take fish out and add some halved olives to the oil, cook for a minute or two, turn off heat and squeeze a lemon into the iol, add a dash of ouzo., pour over the fish.
