Birds Eye Seaside Specials

This is a relatively new product from Birds eye and in my opinion is one of their tastiest. Seaside specials are frozen fish in crispy batter and are marketed to taste just like fish from a seaside chip shop. Now I wont pretend that they taste like the chip shop but they are not bad at all.

The specials come in a blue coloured box with a picture of the seaside and fish and chips wrapped in newspaper. This had my mouth watering to start with. Each box contains two fish and the box costs approx £1.99 depending on when bought. I purchased my box for £1 introductory offer from Tesco.

The taste of the fish is great. It has a crunchy crispy and really quite tasty batter and the fish itself is soft and succulent. There is plenty of tender white fish and comes in a good size portion. It is one of the best frozen fish I have tasted.

Each portion (1 fish) contains 47% Alaskan Pollock (which seems to be the main ingredient in fish fingers just now too). Each portions contains 305kcals and 14grams of fat. Which in my opinion is an awful lot for a piece of fish!!

To cook the fish it must be cooked from frozen and is best oven baked at 200degrees for approx. 25mins.

Overall-
A really good tasty bit of fish, but far too high in fat for me.

Summary: Really tasty bit of fish
