I like fish - if it's not fishy. Does anyone have any recommendations as to the type of fish to prepare and a simple recipe?

I had fish tonight, IO. I hate oily fish as well. I had what is called zander in German, had to look it up for the English name: pike-perch. It was awfully good: cooked with butter, shallot, sliced mushrooms, cream and white wine, with a large sweet chopped tomato added near the end of cooking, served with rice and a salad. Plucked the recipe today from the internet.
One of my favourite fish recipes is Chinese fish in white wine sauce with spring onions. Dead easy: cut some white fish ( I like cod best) into cubes, roll in cornflour, deep fry till crispy, make a bit of sauce with bottled Thai fish sauce, sugar, white wine, cornflour, sesame oil, pour over the fish and garnish with chopped spring onions. It is a beautiful dish, all glossy white and green, and absolutely delicious.

Well, okay ladies, please pass those recipes along. But, remember, I'm really not a great cook. Now, I do fantastic Thai green curry and coconut soup from scratch. However, there are some dishes that are beyond the scope of my ability - or should I say kitchen patience.
Jilona....."haddock".....LOL

For you in the States 'Rainbow Trout' for us 'Brown Trout'. I went fishing in Washington State, The Snake river. They have sturgeon there too. Thousands of recipes on the web for both. Try Ask Jeeves.com. (got the urge to get my Fishing Rod out now. See what youv'e done)

However, there are some dishes that are beyond the scope of my ability - or should I say kitchen patience. Jilona....."haddock".....LOL Hello IO, I’m not sure that I can write this without splitting my sides – but here goes. Poached Smoked Haddock With Cheese & Chive Sauce: (Serves Two)1lb fresh smoked haddock 2 large cups of rice (any sort of long grain) Large carton of freshly made cheese sauce (I used to make the sauce, but the proprietary ones are now so good, it’s not worth it). Half a cup of chopped fresh chives. Method:Boil the rice. Meanwhile, place haddock in a steamer for 15 mins, or microwave on a plate with cover for around 4-5 mins on level 7. Heat sauce gently and when it reaches bubble point, add the freshly chopped chives. Flake haddock to bite size pieces and serve on top of the rice, topped off with the cheese and chive sauce. Simple, quick and delicious. PS - I am looking for a stuffing recipe that involves haddock with two tins of sundried tomatoes. When I find one, I will let you know. ;D

I know a few fishermen - one who likes to head off to Montana here in the U.S. and New Zealand. As for the fish... I just don't like the really fishy tasting fish. I've found that I can handle the Alaskan White and Salmon (but only if it's cooked corrrectly).

Jilona, I'm going to try that. It sounds both easy and delicious. Maybe later this summer I can start using some of the herbs that I'm planting. Er....not THAT herb!!!!!

IO, don't tell me you don't eat catfish and live in the South! Bloody lovely, it is. I also had a fish called shad in the States which I also found delicious.
