I think this recipe of Azelias is a very good & easy one (as well as being GF) & sounds very tasty; practical too as it is a one pot meal. I am definitely going to try it next weekend, or maybe before if I can find whereabouts of the fish fillets in my freezer!!

I think fish bones are something you have to live with if you want to eat fish.
Depending on the fish but simply cooked is best.
Grilled with a little butter and a small sprinkle of herbs is nice. Gutted or gutted and filleted is up to you.
Nothing nicer than a fresh mackerel (and I mean caught that afternoon) grilled with butter.
Also nice steamed, you can buy microwave steamer bags that work well. Don't cook too long though, no more than a couple of minutes.
Other fish that has a firmer flesh can go also go in stews and pies. Dogfish (aka rock salmon or huss) makes a great curry. These can also be battered and fried.
Black Bream is a really nice fish that grills well as does Gar Fish. One note about the gar fish, their bones are bright green.

Any ideas of what to do with small whole fish? They are a bit bony if just fried, although they taste nice enough.
Give the cats a treat Joanna....or kiss of life and into a fish tank. If your OH caught them tell him to throw them back and not to come home until he can present you with something worth applying your expertise to.........

This dish of salmon with soba noodles & pak choi sound good. Soba noodles should be made of pure buckwheat flour but check that yours don't have wheat added if you are GF, some makes are not pure. I love Japanese food so this is a recipe for me as I try to eat fish at least twice a week.

Cats may indeed get a treat. These little fish are so small. Just wondering if I cook them for oodles of time in the slow cooker, will those fish bones become like those in the tins, really soft and edible?
I will have to try and make the Soba noodles, we have plenty of buckwheat. Just needs processing to get some flour
