00:00:07one of the food team and today I’m going
00:00:09to show you how to cut a pocket and
00:00:11stuff a flat fish I’ve got my fish in a
00:00:15nice clean board and I’ve got a sharp
00:00:17knife it’s got a little bit of bend in
00:00:19the blade look for the backbone down the
00:00:21bottom of the fish you can feel it and
00:00:23feel a line put the tip of your knife on
00:00:26the line just behind the fish’s head and
00:00:29cut cut down to the backbone try an
00:00:37almost to the tail of the fish and you
00:00:40can hear the bones there now you made
00:00:43your cut down the back you need to make
00:00:46a cut horizontally against the bones of
00:00:48the fish to take the bones away and
00:00:50create a little pocket what you do is
00:00:52put it into the cut lay it flat against
00:00:54the bones and carve like that sort of
00:00:57you carve the fish off the bones right
00:01:00so my knife goes into the cup and it
00:01:02turns slightly on its side then I’m
00:01:04going to cut down against the bones to
00:01:10create a nice little pocket
00:01:16and then we’re going to do the same on
00:01:18the other side so cut your knife in you
00:01:22know if in flat against the bottom bones
00:01:24cut it down and make a pocket just like
00:01:26you did on the first side now you cut in
00:01:29not quite to the edge of the Philip
00:01:32which is round there this is all a space
00:01:34you’ve got to to use if you’ve got a
00:01:38flat bendy knife it follows the bones
00:01:42and you can’t go too far wrong and
00:01:43there’s a little pocket there to fill
00:01:48the pocket in the fish lift the skin up
00:01:52take a nice spoonful of the filling and
00:01:57pop it inside now to fill the other side
00:02:03just do the same thing hold the fish
00:02:06open spoon in the Proms drop down
