Goldline Bream (Kapartan Fish) — Mild, Firm & Versatile White Fish for Fry, Curry and Grill | Nationwide Delivery
Goldline Bream — locally known as Kapartan Fish — is a popular sea fish appreciated for its firm white meat, mild flavor, and excellent cooking versatility. It strikes the right balance between soft everyday fish and stronger ocean fish, making it a reliable choice for families who want clean taste without overpowering fishiness.
Kapartan Fish performs especially well in fry, curry, tawa masala, grilling, and light baking. Its meat holds shape nicely during cooking, absorbs spices evenly, and stays juicy, which makes it suitable for both desi recipes and simple continental preparations.
