Shellfish

All the flavours of one of the sushi roll greats in a fresh, textural salad bowl.

This easy prawn pasta is bursting with flavour thanks to juicy cherry tomatoes, while fresh chilli makes for a fiery sauce.

Comforting but not too heavy, this creamy fish pie is a year-round favourite. So don’t be shy – bust through the golden pastry cap and dive right in.

This dish captures the flavours of the classic Thai soup, but as a crowd-pleasing main course.

From tuna to salmon, sardines and mackerel, which are the best types of tinned fish to eat, and why?

These crumbed patties are so simple to throw together, you’ll wonder why they aren’t more popular in Australia.

This slightly “restauranty” but super-achievable dinner is perfect for Valentine’s Day.

A simple herb butter dresses up snapper fillets, with mussels providing additional interest.

Served on bread or with corn chips, this summer snack is a real crowd-pleaser.

Prices are down and quality is up for prawns, oysters, lobster, crayfish and more at Melbourne’s markets this Christmas and beyond.
