Frequently asked questions about Coley Fillet

What is coley?

Coley is a white fish from the cod family, Pollachius virens, also known as saithe or coalfish. It is an underrated relative of cod and pollack, with firm flesh and a mild flavour. Rockfish coley is wild caught in South West waters and landed at Brixham.

What does coley taste like?

Coley has a mild, slightly sweet flavour, a touch fuller than cod, with a firm, meaty texture. The raw flesh is darker, with a grey-pink tinge, but it turns white as it cooks. It takes well to sauces, spices and batter.

Is coley as good as cod?

Coley is very like cod and makes an excellent alternative. The two are close relatives with a similar mild flavour, though coley flakes are a little smaller and the raw flesh is darker. It can replace cod in fish pies, fish cakes, curries and fish and chips.

How do you cook coley fillets?

Roast coley fillets at around 200C for 10 to 12 minutes, or pan-fry them skin-side down for 3 to 4 minutes before turning for a final minute or two. The fillets cook in under 15 minutes. Coley is also ideal for fish pie, fish cakes and frying in batter or breadcrumbs.

Does coley have bones?

No, Rockfish coley fillets are boneless. They are filleted ready for cooking with the skin left on, and each fillet weighs at least 140g. The skin can be crisped in the pan or peeled away easily once the fish is cooked.

Can you freeze coley fillets?

Yes, fresh coley fillets can be frozen. Freeze them on the day they arrive and use within about three months for the best quality, defrosting overnight in the fridge before cooking. If you are eating them fresh, keep them refrigerated and use by the date on the pack.

Why is Rockfish fish so fresh?

At Rockfish, we pride ourselves on delivering the freshest fish you can find. Our location right on the quayside means we’re just steps away from the day’s catch. This proximity allows us to inspect and select only the finest quality fish, ensuring that what reaches your plate is nothing short of exceptional. From the moment the fish is landed, it takes just a short 17-meter journey to our dedicated fishmonger unit, where it’s expertly prepared within hours.

How is the fish prepared?

To maintain peak freshness, we portion and vacuum-pack every piece of seafood on the same day it’s landed. This keeps the fish in pristine condition, clean, and easy to handle for cooking. Whether it’s destined for our restaurants or your home, you can trust that Rockfish fish is as fresh as it gets - straight from the sea to your table in record time.
