Firm white flesh gives Fresh Hamour (Grouper Fish / سمك الهامور) 1kg the structure needed for whole grilling and traditional Machboos without the flesh breaking apart easily. Fresh Fish Dubai selects live and fresh Hamour, identifies the fish by condition and size, then cleans or cuts it to your chosen preparation rather than keeping it pre-cut. The 1kg option can be ordered as whole cleaned, steaks or fillet, with chilled packaging maintained at 0 to 4°C for Dubai delivery. Customers in Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Beach Residence and Business Bay can receive orders in 60 to 90 minutes, while other Dubai areas follow their stated delivery windows. The current working price is AED 100 per 1kg, subject to the live product listing. Order 24/7 through the online shop, phone or WhatsApp for grilling, Machboos, curry, or pan-frying. Hamour Fish Variants and Preparation Variant Weight Preparation Recommended use Price Whole cleaned 1kg Cleaned and ready to cook Whole grilling and Machboos AED 100 Steaks 1kg Cross-cut portions Curry and pan cooking AED 100 Fillet 1kg Boneless fish portions Pan frying and grilling AED 100 The variants above should remain limited to the preparation choices actually enabled in the live product selector. Do not publish an option that cannot be purchased. How Your Hamour Is Picked Hamour is picked by checking the condition of the fish rather than treating every 1kg fish as identical. Fresh Fish Dubai looks for firm flesh, clear eyes, intact skin and a clean marine smell before the fish is selected for preparation. Because Hamour is commonly sold whole or as substantial steaks, maintaining the flesh structure during cleaning matters more than simply reaching a target weight.
The hamour fish price in the UAE depends on fish size, preparation, and current supply. The working 1kg price for this page is AED 100, while the final amount should always match the live product selector at checkout.
For hamour fish per kg comparisons, check whether the quoted price refers to a whole fish, cleaned fish or fillet. A fillet price cannot be compared directly with the price of an uncut whole fish because the preparation produces a different usable yield.
Current UAE listings demonstrate this difference.

Fresh Hamour fish needs careful handling because its firm flesh is one of the main reasons customers buy it for grilling and steak cuts. Fresh Fish Dubai keeps the fish under refrigerated conditions at 0 to 4°C, then cleans and cuts it after your order instead of relying on a pre packed standard cut.
The fish remains chilled throughout storage and delivery at 0 to 4°C. This helps protect the firm texture customers expect when they choose Hamour for grilling rather than a softer white fish.
• Hamour specific selection: Fish are selected for firm flesh, intact skin, and clear eyes because the condition of the whole fish affects the result when it is grilled or cut into steaks.
• Cut to your choice: You can select whole cleaned, steaks, or fillet rather than receiving one fixed preparation.
• 0 to 4°C handling: Hamour stays refrigerated between 0 and 4°C during storage and delivery, with chilled packaging used for the journey to your kitchen.
Fresh Fish Dubai has served customers since 2020 and accepts orders 24 hours a day, seven days a week.
Score the skin, season the fish, and grill for approximately 8 to 10 minutes per side, depending on thickness.
Season and cook the fish with the rice and spices. Allow approximately 30 to 40 minutes for the complete dish.
Pan-fry over medium heat for approximately 4 to 5 minutes per side, depending on thickness.
