Rabbit Pie ! And, for the purists, made with shortcrust pastry, NOT puff pastry ! ? ! Cheers.

Treat off my dad tonight, he's a friend on the fresh fish stall up town... Scallops and lemon sole fillets...

Family get together at ours, so a bit of a spread.. 13 hour cooked brisket, slow cooked pork shoulder.. Home made coleslaw, stuffing, roasties... and a 2 day hangover! Lol

I absolutely love skate, it’s my favourite fish.

Brown butter, capers, job done.

Never had skate wings, are there any bones in them ?

It more like cartilage than bone mate and the flesh sits on the top, you just scrape it off either side.

All the cartilage is linked together like a blade, not like them pin bones you get in most fish.

Like you say mate rays are a type of shark and its all cartilage, not bone... dogfish/rock salmon (in the chippy)  has one long cartridge running through it, no rib cage just a mini shark... if you can be asked to skin em they are good eating..

Are they actual skate then or Rays ?..... I thought you only caught Skate in Scotland ??/

Itll be a ray mate, probably thornback Ray.. 

But there are Skate caught further south every so often, think one was caught off the beach in Bristol Channel somewhere earlier this year..
