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 in our laksa.
