There was a recipe for roasting a whole fish in the newspaper the other day. I may have tried this in the past (I've since learned the fish has to be scaled, gutted and cleaned), but I decided to try it again. The article said (truthfully) that cooking fish (or meat) with the bones imparts so much more flavour. Once cooked, you slice away the flesh from one side of the fish, uncovering the bones. You lift those bones away and you are left with the flesh on the underside. It's not hard to do.
I got some whole farmed trout from Costco wholesalers. It was beautifully cleaned so I just had to stuff and roast it. The stuffing can be as simple as some chopped onions, tomatoes and herbs. Season with some salt and pepper and I'm thinking you could lather it with your favourite barbecue sauce. Pre-heat the oven to 400F (or 450F depending on how hot your oven is). Bake on a sheet lined with parchment paper for half an hour.
Have you ever roasted a whole fish before?

Yes, and it is always delicious - you have succeeded in making me hungry again although I have just rolled out of my bed! Valerie
Yes, I did try roasted whole fish, fried whole fish and BBQ whole fish before! They are very delicious..
Nope. I hate bones in fish. Lol. I usually bake salmon filets (no bones) once a week.
I have never had roasted whole fish but i am very intrigued and want to try it.
I have never roasted a whole fish. Sounds like it is very tasty.
yes but we did it outside, yours sounds wonderful,
Yes I have and love it !
My cousin has bought a whole salmon at Costco and done something with mayonnaise on it that was scrumptious. Maybe it wasn't all that healthy to do it that way, but it was sure delicious!
