Jamie Oliver - How to Fillet a Sea Bass

Filleting a fish is one of those kitchen tasks that most home cooks avoid, mainly because it’s seen as a messy and hard task to perform.

However, with a little bit of knowledge, you’ll quickly realise that filleting fish is much easier than it looks and the taste of a freshly caught fish is always better.

In the video below Jamie Oliver sets about filleting a sea bass and shows the simple knife skills needed to make sure you do it perfectly every time - make sure you have sharp knives. 

It might seem like one of those jobs that only a professional chef can do but a few minutes in and you’ll be ready to start filleting your fish at home. Here's a bonus recipe for Sea Bass with Celeriac Puree by Chef Mauro Colagreco.
