Today, I cooked for lunch,"Gilt-head bream with potatoes and red pepper in the oven" (also known as Royal Bream).
Yesterday morning I purchased two gilt-head bream, which cost 10 Euros ( 9 Euros per kilo).
Ingredients you will require to cook this dish ;-
2 gilt-head bream.
4 potatoes.
1 large onion.
1/2 red pepper.
3 garlic cloves.
1 lemon.
Parsley.
Olive oil.
White wine.
Salt.
and water.
Method;-
Pre heat the oven to 180º C (top and bottom).
Firstly cut the potatoes into slices, not too thick,then cut the onions into quarters.
Place the potatoes and onion in a frying pan and cook until brown,then layer them in an oven proof dish previously coated with olive oil.(meat dish will do fine).
Then add 3 cloves of raw chopped garlic.
Place both gilt-head bream on top of the potatoes and the onion.
Add salt all over the fish and the dish.
Then add some fresh chopped parsley on top.
Chop a pepper into small pieces and add them to the fish.
Mix 1/2 cup white wine and 1/2 cup of water and pour it over the fish.
Put 2 slices across each fish and push in a wedge of lemon.
Place in oven and ensure the mixture does not go dry by adding more water to to the container.
Finally after a total of 45 minutes in the oven ,remove from oven and serve,see below.
My finished result:

Really, if I say so myself, all modesty aside, it tasted delicious.
The fish was so fresh and it produced a beautiful flavour.
I do hope that you will try this recipe one day yourselves.
If I can do it,you can !
Until my next post, kind regards,
Luis.
