4) PANLA is the general term used for this very fish.
it has many species, but three main species are imported into nigeria.

i) ALASKA POLLOCK :- this is the one that is used for making STOCK FISH(OKPOROPO).it has very little or no FAT contents in its body,Personally i prefer it when it is fried,

ii)HAKE:- just like ALASKA but it has a a very sharp dentition,its whole dentition consist of 95% canine,it has a great taste.

iii)BLUE WHITING :- this is the one that is always folded and sold by most EGUN hawkers,it is usually smoked and dried,it is great for vegetable soups.
i will upload the pics respectively
I also love fried Panla, but the smoke one is practically tasteless and my mom prefers to use that with Okra soup.

But unfortunately the FG has included fish into the list of the 41 ban items to access forex at official and interbank markets for reason best known to them.
You can't even open a Form M easily for fish importation nowadays.
This will soon put the prices of these imported and good source of proteins out of the reach of many Nigerians.
This govt is getting many things wrong in it forex policy.

easyfem:
All diz fish, i sabi dem... Which one com com from Nigeria?

None. cry So sad. 80% of the fish we eat is imported because its easier for market women to buy well packaged, already frozen fish, in cartons dn to be putting pails of water wt stinky fresh fish in their shops. The most popular nigerian fish is catfish and then tilapia. There are others. But how many market pple sell these?
Those dt farm it usually get marketers to take it to the street junctions to sell. If we had d technology to freeze and package it well like they do abroad it would be much more readily sold by market women. And pple would rather buy sthn packaged newly dn fish dt has spent 3 months on d high seas & God knows how many months since it was farmed. Nigeria has so many business opportunities.
