I’m looking for some fish recipes the whole family will enjoy and aren’t massively complicated or time consuming. We all eat pretty much anything but DH not massively keen on salmon, we like bold flavours and I’m losing weight so avoiding high fat/creamy dishes. We cook with prawns (Indian & Thai curry and various rice dishes) but that’s about it and really want to cut down on our red meat consumption and introduce some variety with more fish and veggies.

Basa curry? We do that a lot with red or Green Thai curries and basa fillets. You just chop them up and throw them into the sauce to boil for about 5-7ish mins.

Have a look for Portuguese fish stew recipes. Most are all in one including veg and flavoured with smoked paprika, saffron and herbs.
Don't stick with the recipe, use it as an idea. I add tomatoes, red pepper, courgettes etc.

Fish pie, as long as you don't use too much butter in the mash or sauce. Serve with lots of steamed vegetables.

Kedgeree?

Boil new potatoes, split them and cover with melted garlic butter.
Cook veg ( peas, green beans etc) and add to the potatoes.
Pour over a jar of Lloyd Grosman tomato and basil sauce.
Lay thin pieces of raw cod (or other fish) on top.
Cook for about 10 minutes until the fish is done.

Portuguese fish stew I mentioned is very similar idea to that. I might pinch your easy sauce idea!

Whole fish is easy and tasty.Sea bass or sea bream, salt and pepper them, fill the cavity with some lemon and onion slices and herbs like sage or parsley, close up with toothpicks, brown on both sides, add white wine and fish stock and put in a 200 oven for 30-40 min.

White fish I like to use a red sauce (red pepper and tomato seasoned with coriander, fish on top with lid closed) or creamy bacon sauce (brown fish in butter and/or rapeseed oil, separately fry cubed bacon, add cream, reduce and put around/on top of fish.)

Portuguese fish stew sounds lovely and definitely need to lose my fear of whole fish. That sea bass/bream filled recipe sounds yum @GrumpyPanda

This is ace… and you can make double quantities of the base mixture and freeze.

Contrary to the recipe, I steam the cubed potatoes before adding to the pan. They seem to take FOREVER if you don’t.

the best tacos I’ve ever eaten! This was so fresh, healthy and delicious. Even bought taco holders for it to make it authentic. I used cod as no tilapia fish here and topped with feta cheese

Fish does really well in a traybake. My favourite is cod fillets baked with new potatoes, tomatoes, olives, lemon & garlic. It's a warming and healthy Mediterranean style meal, and so easy because it's all cooked together in the oven.

For a really simple but tasty dish, spread red pesto offer cod fillets wrap in pancetta and put in the oven.
Also a nicois with a warm tuna steak simply seasoned with plenty of cracked black pepper, rock salt and a splash of balsamic is simplicity at its best.

Sea bream in an oven dish with some water, ginger, garlic, fresh chilli, lime slices, salt and pepper. Tuck some of the stuff inside the cavity. Cover and poach for 30 mins. Serve with rice and steamed veg

These are great thanks so much

Oh, yes, I totally get the challenge of finding something the whole family will love without spending forever in the kitchen! One fish recipe I stumbled upon recently was grilled dorado, and it was a huge hit! We had a family BBQ, and I was looking for something light but with bold flavors. I marinated the dorado with lemon, garlic, and some fresh herbs, then tossed it on the grill. It was super easy, packed with flavor, and everyone loved it, even my husband who’s not the biggest salmon fan. It was perfect alongside a fresh veggie salad.
