Best fish dish to cook individual portions for a large group?
Am thinking Tilapia wrapped in a banana leaf, looks visually impressive yet pretty simple as can just put 3 trays of 5/6 portions in at once

monkfish goujons. Essentially get some monkfish tail or fillets, cut into goujons and fry in a simple beer batter with some chips and home made tartare sauce. |

Most of the bets placed so far seem more like hopeful punts rather than value spots

Problem is cooking for 16 people, so need an industrial sized deep fryer to do it in one go, and hard to do it in batches as goes cold fast and then soggy if reheated. Surely oven is only way forward?

Here is an idea . You could pick some different types of fish and have the fishmonger prepare them for you into the same sizes. Have some cool ways of presenting like boat boned. ( the head is left on the fish but the bone is removed creating a canoe like effect. ) then flavour each fish with different complimentary spices and just simply bake in a foil parcel . Plenty of prep but once it comes to service nice and easy. Each person gets served a foil parcel with appropriate sides served family style in the middle of the table. Everyone opens their parcel to different smells and types of fish , it create a talking point , people share what they have with each other and it creates an experience rather than just a meal. |
