Barramundi (Lates calcarifer), also known as Asian sea bass, is a versatile and popular fish native to the Indo-Pacific region, especially in Australia and Southeast Asia. Known for its mild, buttery flavour and tender texture, it’s a favourite in many cuisines and is widely farmed for both food and sport fishing. Barramundi thrive in both fresh and saltwater, often migrating between rivers and coastal areas. Their large, silvery bodies and ability to grow over a meter in length make them both a culinary and sporting prize.
