ABC+ Skate Fish in Olive Oil & Curry, 120 g

ABC+ Skate Fish in Olive Oil and Curry is a beautifully unexpected conserva: tender pieces of skate, gently preserved in olive oil and lifted with a warmly aromatic curry seasoning. Skate has a delicate, almost silky texture and a mild, clean flavour that absorbs seasoning particularly well. Here, the curry brings soft spice and fragrant depth rather than heat, while the olive oil rounds everything out with richness and a smooth finish.

The result is elegant and versatile—more refined than a typical curried fish tin, but still comforting and immediately satisfying. Each bite has the natural sweetness of the fish, balanced by savoury spice and the subtle fruitiness of the oil. It is an excellent choice for anyone looking to explore beyond sardines, tuna, and mackerel, or for a quick pantry meal that feels genuinely special.

Serve it simply over warm toasted sourdough with a squeeze of lemon and a few flakes of sea salt. It is also excellent spooned over steamed rice with fresh herbs, folded into a warm potato salad, or paired with chickpeas, roasted peppers, and a sharp vinaigrette. For an easy tapas plate, add good olives, crisp pickles, and a glass of chilled Albariño or dry sparkling wine.
