Ingredients:
- 🐟 1 Whole Carpenter Fish (freshly caught at The Farm Deli!)
- 🧈 1 cup butter, softened (home-made farm butter available at The Farm Deli)
- 🧄 2 cloves garlic (local organic elephant garlic available at The Farm Deli)
- 🍋 1 lemon (local lemons available at The Farm Deli)
- 🌿 Handful of fresh herbs (rosemary, thyme, parsley)
- 🌶️ 1-2 fresh chili peppers (optional)
- 🧂 Salt & black pepper
Method:
- Preheat:
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). - Prepare the Fish:
Place the whole Carpenter fish on a lined baking tray.
Score the skin at an angle in lines about 3 cm apart, cutting slightly into the flesh (about 1 cm deep). 🔪 - Make the Herb Butter:
Crush the garlic with sea salt to form a paste.
Finely chop the herbs, zest the lemon, and finely chop the chili (if using).
Combine these with the softened butter, salt, pepper, and lemon juice. Mix well. 🥣 - Stuff the Fish:
Spoon and smear the flavored butter into the incisions in the fish, filling them generously.
Pour any remaining butter inside the fish cavity. 🐟 - Bake:
Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is golden brown and cooked through. The flesh should be white and flake easily. ⏲️ - Rest & Serve:
Let the fish rest for a few minutes before serving.
Gently remove the top section of flesh from the bones and place it on a serving platter. 🥘
