900g-1.5kg/2-3lb grey mullet, cleaned and cut into steaks, 4cm/1½in thick

Method:
1. Bring a large pan of well-salted water to the boil.

3. Add the spaghetti to the pan of boiling water and cook for 8-9 minutes or until al dente.
4. Meanwhile season the grey mullet steaks on both sides with salt and pepper.
5. Push the flavourings to the side of the saute pan and add the steaks. Increase the heat and fry for 3 minutes on each side, until lightly browned.
