A HEALTHY diet should include at least two portions of fish a week, with one being an oily type such as salmon or sardines.
But one in five adults is so put off by fish, they will only eat them if they are coated in breadcrumbs and shaped into fingers.
Fish doesn’t need to be terrifying and can be really easy to cook.
Plus you can do so much with a fillet. It can taste great as both a dinner party dish and an easy midweek meal.
Here are three tasty fish recipes you can try at home.
