Scottish haddock fillets come in a light seasoned flour coating, so you get a thin, dry crust rather than a thick batter. Frozen and meant to be cooked from frozen, they work best in the oven, though they can also be pan-fried if you want a crisper edge. Compared with battered fish in the frozen range, this one keeps the coating quieter and the haddock more front and centre. That light dusting lets the natural flavour of the fish come through more clearly than a heavy crumb would. It's a good option when you want something closer to a pan-fried fillet than a chip shop piece, without having to season and coat the fish yourself.
