1

Have your fish monger scale and gut your fish. Rinse the fish (inside and out). Cut open the fish from the cavity to almost the tail. Now turn the fish so the spine is facing up and gently press down on the spine to flatten the fish. You now have a butterflied fish.

2

Now season the inside parts of the fish by rubbing the Herb paste evenly and place in the fridge (covered) for an hour (remove from fridge and allow 10 minutes for fish to come to room temperature).

3

Pre-heat your oven to medium-high at 275c. Place the fish on a Baking grill and let it cook for at least 30 to 40 minutes based on the size and how nicely its charred on the top.

4

Best served with roasted vegetables or steamed white rice.
