About Surmai

Surmai — called King Fish or Seer Fish across India — is prized for its dense, meaty texture and the rich, slightly sweet flavour that makes every preparation sing. Whether pan-fried with masala or slow-cooked in a Goan curry, Surmai delivers. NaavFresh sources it directly from dock auctions at Navi Mumbai's Sassoon Docks, so what arrives at your door is the same fish that came off the boat that morning.

How to Cook Surmai

Tawa Fry (Most Popular)

Marinate steaks in red chilli, turmeric, lime and ginger-garlic paste for 30 minutes. Shallow-fry on high heat 3–4 min each side for a crisp crust.

Goan Coconut Curry

Blend fresh coconut, red chillies, tamarind and spices into a masala. Add steaks in the last 8 minutes — they cook fast and absorb the sauce beautifully.

Tandoor / Grill

Score the steaks deeply, apply a yoghurt-based marinade, refrigerate 2 hours, then grill at high heat for 6–8 minutes.
