SEA BASS

[KUSTARD]

i recently bought some sea bass because my husband tried it in a restaurant and liked it. i would appreciate some ideas on how to cook it. could i just wrap it in foil and bake it in the oven? if so, for how long and at what temperature? simple ideas please because i have broken my wrist which is why there are no capital letters. can only manage one-finger typing at present.

[ummmm]

Skin on?

If you can put butter in the cavity of the fish, that should add to the juiciness. About 20 mins on a medium temperature.

Sorry to hear about the wrist. Hope you get better soon

[KUSTARD]

yes it is a fillet with the skin on it - not whole if that's what you mean

[ummmm]

Def fry if it's skin on.

[albaqwerty]

aah fillet, fry and enjoy.

thanks all for your suggestions also for your good wishes alba. it doesn't hurt just frustrating trying to do things. don't think i can risk using a frying pan though which is why i asked about the oven.

[ummmm]

Get hubby to fry it...only takes a few mins.

I like to cook it headless, gutted with skin on. I rub olive oil over the fish with my hands and grind some rock salt on top and bang it in the oven. I used to eat it that way at least twice weekly when I lived over in Spain. It's juiciest that way.

right i am feeling very hungry now ummmm. i will do that. charlie is on cooker cleaning at the moment anyway. can't understand the mess he makes when he fries things. still .... he tries
