flounder
This fish is common in estuaries and bays of Western Australia, including Swan Estuary Marine Park and Walpole and Nornalup Inlets Marine Park. Flounder is a mild-tasting fish with a slightly sweet undertone. Its texture is delicate and fine with low levels of oiliness and moisture, we have managed to score some large ones this time.
Whole grilled only with coriander & ginger butter.

swordfish
Swordfish is a mild-tasting, white-fleshed fish with a meaty texture. It is sold exclusively in steaks. Its mild taste makes it a particularly good choice for those who are unsure if they like fish. Swordfish is particularly good grilled, either as a steak or kebabs, and it’s also delicious broiled and sautéed.
