Step cooking
We make a vegetable preparation - a “pillow” for sea bass

- Dissolve five large potatoes in circles, 3-4 mm thick. Immerse the chopped potatoes in a bowl of water so that the chopped tubers give off excess starch.
- Two large onions cut into quarters.
- At the bottom of the baking dish (or on a baking sheet) pour 1-2 tbsp. l vegetable oil and evenly distribute over the entire inner surface.
- Drain the potatoes and place the potato circles on the bottom of the pan / pan.
- Place chopped onions evenly on top of the potato layer.
- Pour the contents of the mold ½ stack. filtered water or any broth.
- Cut two medium-sized tomatoes, like potatoes, into slices, and evenly distribute over the onion layer.
- Drizzle chopped tomatoes with a couple of tablespoons of olive oil, add a pinch of salt and sprinkle with dried thyme leaves from three to four branches.
- Crush in a mortar 1 tsp. peppercorns and peppered with tomatoes and vegetable oil flavored with spices. Put the vegetable preparation in the heated oven, and bake for 55-60 minutes.
Working with fish
- Three - four carcasses of sea bass or other noble fish (trout, dorado, pelengas), clean from scales, gut, cut fins from the belly, back and tail. The head can be removed, or you can leave it after first removing the gills.
- On the carcass, on each side, make 3-4 shallow incisions diagonally.
- Lightly salt the fish on all sides. Pour 1 teaspoon into the inside of the abdomen of each fish. lemon juice.
- Lay the fish carcasses prepared for baking on a vegetable preparation taken out of the oven. Pour over each fish 1 tbsp. l olive oil.
- Pour the contents of the mold ½ stack. dry white wine.
- Sprinkle the fish in seasoning. In this case, a spicy mixture of "Provence herbs" is perfect.
- Set the cooking dish in the oven. Hold for five minutes at a temperature of 180 ° C, then increase the temperature to 220 ° C, and bake for another 10-15 minutes until golden brown.
Serving and decoration
Serve the dish hot, decorating with chopped parsley leaves on top, not laying out on portioned plates, since the fish prepared in this way belongs to the village (home) cuisine.
