Description

A Kuban recipe that works equally well with sea bass (also known as Mediterranean bass) as well as with mullet, gilt-head bream, and other fish that have a belly which can be gutted and stuffed. The fish can be served with kohlrabi, sliced, alongside the same sea bass steamed to perfection. For the sauce, blend together a bunch of parsley, lemon juice, three to four cloves of garlic, a handful of green grapes (with or without seeds), and 100 ml of olive oil.

Ingredients

Sea Bass - 4 pieces
Lemon - 2 pieces
Red Grape Juice - 3.5 oz
Parsley - 0.7 oz
Garlic - 4 cloves
Spanish onions - 1 head
Champagne Vinegar - 1 tablespoon
Salt - to taste
Ground Black Pepper - to taste

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Clean the fish, gut it, and remove the gills and eyes (both gills and eyes can be bitter). Finely chop the garlic, onion, and parsley, crush the grapes, and combine everything with vinegar and lemon juice.

Step 2

Let the vegetables marinate for a few minutes, then stuff them into the fish's belly. You can also add dehydrated lemon halves to the belly, cutting them in a way that they fit inside the perch.
