If you’ve ever admired Hugh’s grey mullet, you’ll love this version from River Cottage

Watch the video of the River Cottage team making mullet carpaccio and this barbecued mullet

Serves 2-4, depending on the size of the mullet

Ingredients

  • 1 grey mullet, filleted
  • A little olive or rapeseed oil
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper
  • A few sprigs of fresh thyme

Method: How to make barbecued grey mullet

1. Get your barbecue good and hot.

2. Rub a little oil on to both sides of each fish fillet. Season well with salt and pepper and sprinkle on some thyme leaves, patting them on to the flesh.

3. Put on to the hot barbecue, skin side down, and leave to sizzle for a couple of minutes, then cover with an upside down frying pan (you’re creating a mini oven) and cook for a few minutes more, just until the flesh is opaque all the way through. Serve straight away.

  1. Hi, I printed off two of your recipes and it took 10 pages of A4. Each recipe actually only needs 1 page of A4. So could you modify the Print CSS to be more environmentaly friendly ? Thanks, Shaun.
