This is a really solid offering from Oceans. The curry has a mild spice and a big flavor, as good as most simmer sauces that I have tried, I had it on warm bread and that was delicious but I regret not putting this on some spiced up basmati. It was hard to tell because the sauce was so opaque but it seemed like one large filet that took a little work with the chopsticks to flake out onto my bread, nice and firm with a great flavor.

This tin was pretty great! Mackerel was tender and not too salty. The curry sauce was flavorful but a tad watery. I consumed this beautiful combination straight from the tin but would definitely recommend a carb as the base to really soak up all of the awesome sauce! If you’re thinking about trying this, just add it to your cart. You won’t regret it!

This tin is one of my husband’s favorites. He tends to enjoy most of his tinned fish over white rice, and this tin was perfectly suited for that. The curry sauce is flavorful but not overpowering and the mackerel was of good quality and flavor as well!

I’ve never had korma curry but this caught my eye due to the nice illustrations on the package. When I opened it, what greeted me was a nice big piece of fish covered in sauce (just like the listing showed). I had some leftover baked potatoes I needed to eat so I put the tin over this… Normally I would have gone with rice but it worked well together. The potato soaked up the sauce well and the fish flaked apart nicely for easy eating. The flavor of the sauce was very mild, what stood out to me most was coconut flavor. As I’m writing this after finishing my meal, I’ve noticed some lingering mild spice. I didn’t notice any strong particular fish taste and the texture was just the right amount, not mushy or too chewy. Overall this was a good tin and at $5, couldn’t ask for more.

Didn’t love the fish, but the sauce was delicious, and the combo makes this useful for a quick and easy meal. Had it over jasmine rice with a fried egg.

Great over a bed of rice and a teaspoon of chili garlic paste.

I had this over jasmine rice. Lots of flavor from the sauce. Mackerel pieces were nice. I will definitely buy this again at this price.

My first can from Oceans, and man was it a good one. Fish is firm, and the curry sauce is excellent. Had it warmed up over rice, just stick the can in some boiling water for a minute or so, and it’s perfect. I’ll be snagging these every order from now on.

Really enjoyed this tin. I was a little uncertain what to expect, so I kept it simple, serving with warmed french baguette. It worked well, but as others have mentioned, rice might be the best bet. If you’ve had korma curry before, the sauce is true to type with good spice and coconut flavors. At $5 it’s a great value. Will definitely be getting it again.

This was my first Ocean’s tin, so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. The korma curry definitely steals the show here. Really enjoyed this served with rice, as per the suggestion in the tin description and comments left by other reviews. The mackerel fillets are also of excellent quality. Looking forward to coming back to this tin in the future.

Very unique, yet approachable. The curry is mild enough here that I think the vast majority of people could enjoy this. The texture of the mackerel was on point – just as you’d expect from Ocean’s. A nice chew without chewiness, some flake, solid moisture. I couldn’t help but want a *little* more flavor from the curry sauce but I get why they didn’t. This was a really enjoyable tin over some rice. Between this and the Sardinha Sardines in Olive Oil with Curry, I’d pick Sardinha because it packed a little more oopmh … but regardless, this is a tin that deserves a try.

I enjoyed this mixed with steaming hot rice! The fish was flaky and meaty and the sauce was SO delicious! My only complaint was that there wasn’t extra sauce! Will definitely buy again!

Wow I was really impressed by this tin! Had a nice piece of mackerel, the flavor and consistency was what I expected from an Ocean’s offering, which is to say excellent. The curry sauce, although a bit mild was surprisingly good! I had a small bowl of sticky rice mixed with a little chili crisp, the entire tin went into that. With a side of kimchi this turned out to be an amazing lunch.
Fabulous tin of mackerel for its price point (if you enjoy curry at all that is) and I’ll need to order more to have in the pantry.
