HERE, FISHY, FISHY Characters Zinon, Andrew and George of ZAG Seafood discuss the Greek flavours that drive their lively family-run business.
WHOLE BAKED SNAPPER: Pick up a whole snapper pre-cleaned for you by the team in-store. Start by slicing through the top of the fish and let the mouth-watering flavours seep in. Season with oregano, garlic, extra-virgin olive oil, and salt and pepper – classic Greek ingredients. Place bay leaves in the crevasses and top with sliced lemon. Bake for 30-45 minutes depending on the size of the fish. This dish will serve 4-6 and is perfect your next big family gathering.
GARLIC PRAWN SOUVLAKI: Load up on freshly-caught prawns and marinate them in fresh garlic, rock salt, pepper and lemon, and grill. This tasty Greek recipe is made even better with the addition of souvlaki sticks. Simply thread the juicy prawns along the sticks and serve for the ultimate party pleaser. 4

PACIFIC OYSTERS: As simple as they are delicious, pacific oysters make for the perfect appetiser – just ask George! Grab some oysters and soak in balsamic vinegar and Himalayan salt. The salt will then set, resulting in flavour like never before.
HONEY SOY SALMON: Turn tradition on its head with a modern take on this meal. First, buy a fillet of fresh salmon to grill – the brothers’ favourite fish. Combine honey and soy sauce in a bowl and baste the salmon while grilling. Finally, drizzle sesame seeds on top and serve with zesty Greek salad or rice. ZAG SEAFOOD P (02) 9757 3322

Don’t resort to the same old recipes; thigh fillets provide infinite options. Dice it, slice it, bake it or fry it. Thighs taste great every way imaginable. CHICKEN MART P (02) 9609 7172

is consistent and firm. On the other hand, the fruit you choose should be smooth, sweet-smelling and slightly malleable.
But as shoppers, it can sometimes be hard to decipher which fruits and vegetables we should be eating during the seasons.
Store unripe fruit on your kitchen bench to air; storing greens and other vegetables in sealed bags in the fridge will increase longevity.
The friendly staff at Trim’s Fresh will explain that, in Autumn, apples, pears and grapes dominate fruit baskets, while kale, spinach and cauliflower create the perfect base for a salad or stir-fry.
