Branzino al Forno con Patate

🌍 Italian, National Difficulty: ●●●○○


Whole sea bass roasted on a bed of sliced potatoes. The fish must be scored to the bone so heat penetrates evenly. The potatoes go in first and roast until half-done before the fish is placed on top — otherwise they stay raw.

Ingredients

  • 2 sea bass (branzino), whole, cleaned
  • 4 potatoes, thinly sliced
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • Rosemary, olive oil, white wine
  • Cherry tomatoes, olives

Method

  1. Layering — Layer potatoes in oiled dish; season.
  2. Placing — Place fish on top; scatter garlic, rosemary, tomatoes, olives.
  3. Drizzling — Drizzle wine and oil; roast 200°C (400°F), 30 min.
