Feed of Fish

[bigdaddy]

Hi everyone,

Had the first lot of barra tonight,

Heads chopped off, gutted, scaled, cleaned up.

Made up a rub of butter, garlic, pepper and salt.

Rubbed and left generous lumps of mixture behind inside and out.

Sliced lemon and onion added to middle, with a splash of lemon juice.

Placed in a pyrox baking tray.

Sliced onion and lemon all over the top of fish .

Lumps of butter placed randomly on top of fish.

Pepper and salt to taste.

Alfoil over the top of the dish of fish, made airtight and into 200 C pre heated oven.

25 mins later, and hey presto, cooked fish dish.The aroma is sensational.

Served with baked potato and garden salad topped with fetta cheese.

It was nice, very nice actually, but I think the salmon and trout would probably be tastier.
My barra were nice and mild with no oily taste whatsoever.
Next time I'll fillet and crumb or batter them I think.
Oh and I will have a barbie if we have any fish left.(4 went tonight).

Don't worry about the prawns, they were for my lad, he is not partial to fish.

Cheers.
