STRIPED MULLET AND DILL PACKETS

The Silver Spoon, Phaidon Press

Serves 4
 

Ingredients

• olive oil, for brushing
• 4 striped mullet, scaled and cleaned
• 4 fresh dill sprigs
• 1 onion, chopped
• 1 garlic clove, chopped
• 1 lemon, sliced
• 3/4 cup dry white wine
• 4 teaspoons brandy
• salt and pepper
 

Directions

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Cut four squares of foil, each large enough to hold a fish, and brush with oil.

Season the cavities of the fish with salt and pepper and place a dill sprig in each.

Put one fish on each foil square and divide the onion and garlic among them.

Place a few lemon slices on top of each fish and sprinkle with the wine and brandy.

Fold over the foil to enclose the fish completely, place on a cookie sheet and bake for about 10 minutes.

Remove from the oven, transfer to a warm serving dish and open the foil packets just before serving.
