How to portion 5kg
- Unpack it the day it arrives. Keep two or three days' worth in the fridge at 0 to 5°C.
- Bag the rest in meal-sized portions: two fillets for a couple, four for a family.
- Flatten the bags, squeeze out the air, label them with the date and freeze at -18°C.
- Dice or slice some before freezing, so they're ready for stir-fries and curries.
Batch cooking for meal prep
Season a tray of fillets simply with oil, salt, paprika and garlic. Roast at 200°C (180°C fan) for 20 to 25 minutes, until the thickest part reaches 75°C. Rest, slice and cool, then refrigerate in tubs for up to three days. Rotate the flavours across the week: piri-piri, lemon and herb, or plain for salads and wraps.
