Catch And Cook: Part 2 Bald Chin Groper with creamy garlic prawns.

9harry

Hey guys part two of catch and cook part 2. I will be telling you how I caught and cooked my catch, and my preferred places to catch them. The fish that I use in this part of catch and cook is a small Baldchin grouper about 2kg, which I caught whilst fishing in a monthly comp with Laurie Malton from Murchison Boat Hire on board his 7.85meter aluminium walk-around. I caught this fish in about 30 meters of water, and the ground we were fishing was rocky broken bottom and had heaps of caves in the area which is the ideal habitat . I was using a 4/0 circle hook with a medium sized running bean sinker on 80lb mono leader and the bait I was using, squid and pilchards.

Catch And Cook: Part 1 Parrot Fish

Hey guys starting a new little series of posts called “Catch and Cook”. In this series I will be explaining how I caught the fish, how I cooked it, giving you the recipe and the best places to catch that particular species of fish.

In the first “Catch and Cook” I will be talking to you about catching,cooking and eating Parrot fish.

The main way to catch Parrot fish is by using a speargun because they aren’t a common fish to catch on bait. The way I like to get parrot fish is by free diving with my spear gun at the beaches in Kalbarri where I live. This is a hot spot for parrot fish of all different sizes from 20cm all the way up to almost a meter long.

Recipe:

eggs.

Bread crumbs.

Milk.

Fish but it doesn’t matter what fish it is.

Plain flour.

Method: 

Whisk the egg with a dash of milk in a bowl.

Place the filleted fish in some plain flour until it has a thin layer on it.

Place the fish into the egg and milk and fully cover it in egg milk mixture.

Now place the fish into a bowl of bread crumbs

Heat a fry pan with a little bit of butter in it.

Lastly place the fish into the fry pan until it is golden brown and crispy on the outside and cooked though the middle.

Now plate up with some lemon and your favourite spices
