John Dory Asian Style - Fishbox
John Dory are highly sought after in top restaurants and demand a very high price at the markets. It would likely be the most expensive item on the menu in a restaurant, so catching it in your Fishbox haul is a fabulous opportunity to taste it at home. Rick Stein reckons John Dory is the nicest tasting fish in the sea - and we think he might be onto something.
We hope you'll enjoy trying this recipe!
