Tasteless and spongy

2 stars

Completely tasteless and a strange, spongy texture. Will maybe use the rest for making fishcakes or something - with a lot of added flavours. Definitely won't be buying again.

Good value, good sized portions

4 stars

Really good value white fish. Big portions, ideal for a fish pie.

Good fish that's absolutely versatile

4 stars

I grew up eating fresh basa along the Mekong Delta and I have to say, these are very very authentic when cooked properly. I do not recommend that you microwave from frozen like the instructions on the package. To prepare it you NEED to defrost it, then wash the fillet (very important step). Then you can do what you want with it. Personally I steam with soy sauce and spring onion and ginger and eat with rice (yum!). The flesh is firmer than cod and I think it would be great if baked as well. Or you can stir fry it. Oh, or you can make tom yum out of it. Also here is the best thing; it is boneless. All basa species have only one bone: the backbone (which is removed already). So if you have a fear of bones or have young children, this fish is a great way to increase your unsaturated fats intake.

A nice cheese sauce brings this value for money fi

Perfect fish

5 stars

Excellent quality, extremely tasty,

Perfect for pressure cooker thai curry

5 stars

These have become a staple in our household. I use them in my pressure cooker in a thai green curry and they come out perfect everytime. I'm not a fan of fishy fish but this basa doesn't have an overpower flavour so it takes on the lovely thai flavours. It's become a great way for me to get the wonderful benefits of fish without that fishy flavour!
