Ocado 2 ASC Basa Fillets Skinless & Boneless 250g
Product information
Firm, with a flaky texture and very mild flavour, basa is a good alternative to cod as it’s similarly versatile, and well suited to being pan-seared or baked. It really shines when combined with strong, punchy flavours such as garlic, chilli and pesto and is a good source of protein that’s also low in fat.
The Aquaculture Stewardship Council (ASC) logo provides an assurance of provenance and quality, offering everyone the choice to make positive environmentally and socially responsible choices when buying seafood.
ASC certified basa farms adhere to rigorous requirements to keep fish safe and healthy. This is achieved alongside minimising their impact on local ecosystems, the environment and creating positive social impact.
Examples include:
* Farms being located in areas approved for aquaculture which do not impact endangered species.
* Monitoring water quality and ensuring parameters important to the environment and fish health remain within required limits.
* Offering safe and equitable working environments where employees are preferentially recruited from the local community, earning a decent wage with regulated working hours.

I'd read up on Basa before buying this
We had some of this and didn't particularly enjoy the flavour. I looked up Basa and now see it is intentionally farmed in a murky river far far away. I can't wrap my head around why the supermarkets in the UK have jumped on this bandwagon for selling this fish that has been transported such a long way and has been found to have high levels of antibiotics, hormones and general pollutants. Sound tasty?
Great value
We've purchased these lots of times and they're great. Really versatile and take on other flavours really well. Great in curries.
Smelt really bad
Had this delivered yesterday it has 3 days left on the use by date, it smells awful not just gone off fish smell but something worse. Disgusting.
Great Fillets
I use these in Fish Mappas Curry and they work a treat. Just cut the fish into bite size chunks, add to the sauce and a few minutes later they are cooked. Even using a homemade sauce this meal only takes 20 minutes. Great value fish!
Great flavour
Lovely fish, great in a pie or battered with chips.
Unpleasant taste
Very disappointed with these fillets. My partner and I both agreed that they had a very unpleasant taste.
