Whole Fish Recipe Ingredients for Four People 

1 large snapper or simular type of fish, about 3 1/2 - 4 lb or 1 1/2 - 2 kilos. Have the 
fishmonger gut, clean and descale it for you. 
Salt and ground black pepper to taste
4 fat cloves of garlic very finely sliced
2" piece of fresh ginger finely grated
1/2 teaspoon chilli
The finely grated zest and juice of 2 limes
A handfull of roughly chopped fresh coriander
A handfull of pine nuts
A little extra virgin olive oil


Whole Fish Recipe Method

Wash the fish well, inside and out, under the tap and dry off with kitchen paper.
Line a large oven tray, big enough to hold it, with cooking foil and grease well with 
some of the olive oil, or use a fish baker that goes oven to table >>> 
Lay the fish on the tray and open it up and season with salt and ground black pepper.
Then evenly stuff the inside with the garlic, ginger, chilli, lime zest and juice, 
1/2 the pine nuts and 3/4 of the coriander.
Close the fish up and sprinkle the remaining coriander and pine nuts on top.
Finish with a drizzle of olive oil over the whole of the fish and a little extra seasoning. 
Put the fish, uncovered, into the oven at 190ºc/375ºf for 45 minutes. Turn the oven off 
and leave the fish in for a further 15 minutes.
To serve, remove the fish from the tray on the foil, sliding it off the foil on to a serving 
platter pouring over the cooking juices. Or bring it out in its baker and spoon any cooking 
juices over before serving. Garnish with lime wedges and fresh coriander leaves.
