Fish fillets

Fillet, fish

Pronounce it: fill-ett

Boneless or nearly boneless piece of fish cut lengthways from the sides of the fish - and also a verb 'to fillet'. May or may not be skinned.

To fillet a fish remove the head and, using a thin, flexible knife, work firmly from the tail, holding the knife parallel to the backbone. Remove the fillet, then turn the fish over and repeat the process.
