1 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 large Alose fish
200 grams Sorrel
100 grams Shallots
4 Cloves garlic
2 slices White bread
1 tablespoon Fresh parsley
1 Lemon
200 grams Tomato
2 Sprigs thyme
2 Bay leaves
1 decilitre Olive oil
200 grams Mushrooms
1 Egg

Directions

To gut the fish, cut off the fins, slice open the underside and remove the guts. Cut around the main bone with a knife and remove from the fish. Cut out the gills of the fish and clean it on the inside and outside.

Alternatively, ask your fishmonger to do this for you.

Slice the shallots, mushrooms, garlic, thyme and sorrel. Heat 2oz butter in a pan and fry them for 5 minutes, cooking the sorrel last. Add a tablespoonful of freshly chopped parsley.

In a mixing bowl add the breadcrumbs and 2 tablespoonfuls of white wine, break in an egg and add the contents of the frying pan, mix the ingredients together.

Season the fish with salt and pepper.

Stuff the fish with the mixture, not placing too much in the head area as this will not be eaten. Close the fish and put into an even shape. Take a large baking dish and put down one layer of sliced lemon and tomato, pour over a good amount of olive oil.

Place the fish on top of the lemon and tomato and cover with a layer of more tomato and lemon. Sprinkle with more oil and season. To avoid the tail burning, cover it in tin foil. Cook in a medium oven for 30 minutes.

Sprinkle with fresh parsley and serve.
