PESCE AL FORNO (ITALIAN-STYLE WHOLE ROASTED FISH IN HERBS) RECIPE

Steps:

• Salt the cavity of the fish and slip a little of the herb mixture you've settled on into it (say, a sprig of rosemary and a small wedge of lemon).
• Rub the fish with olive oil and salt them, then lay them in a roasting pan large enough for them to lie flat, and not touching. If you are using rosemary slip a sprig under each fish, then lay another on top, together with several thin slices of lemon and some garlic, if you're using it.
• Sprinkle well with oil, note how thick the fish are at their thickest point, and put them into the oven. Roast for about 10 minutes per inch (2.5 cm) of thickness; the fish will be done when the eyes are completely white and the flesh near the backbone is no longer translucent but flakes easily when prodded with a toothpick. You will probably want to turn the fish (gently) once about half-way through the roasting time.
