Mackerel and sardines

You can buy these whole or as fillets. If you buy whole, ask your fishmonger to fillet them if you need them to – it is part of the service they offer. If a fish is presented whole on a slab, the price is for the whole fish (it may be per kg/lb, but it includes the head, skin and bones). The fishmonger will weigh the fish, work out the price and fillet it for you.
