Recipe - Whole Baked Fish

1 Whole fish; (1 1/22lb),
cleaned
; and sealed
15 g Butter
One half Lemon; cut into wedges
1 small Bunc herbs
Salt and pepper
1 Dsp peppercorns
One half pt Dry white wine or lemon
juice

Ask your fishmonger to clean and scale the fish. Using a sharp knife score
the fish diagonally to allow the flavours to reach into the fish.

Place the fish on foil, stuffing with the butter, lemon wedges, bunch of
herbs, salt and pepper and peppercorns. Sprinkle with white wine. Fold over
the foil and bake in a hot oven at 200C/400F/gas 6 for approximately 810
minutes per lb. The fish does not require turning during cooking, and you
will find the fish looks better if the foil is opened up in the oven for
56 minutes before serving to allow it to crisp up slightly.
