Cooking InstructionsHide images

step 1

Your fish monger may offer to clean your fish for you - if so take them up on this offer. Have your fish packed in ice to keep it the freshest.

step 2

Before you prepare your Fish (1) for the grill, make sure that they are perfectly clean - use the back of a paring knife and run it along the skin in the direction from the tail toward the head, to ensure there are no more scales on the skin.

step 3

Once you have removed any remaining scales, check the inside of the fish and make sure it is perfectly clean, with no innards remaining.

step 4

Give the fish a nice rinse under cold water and drain well before placing on a paper towel lined plate to dry - gently pat inside outside of fish with a paper towel to dry off before moving on.

step 5

Cut three pieces of cooking twine in about 10-12" lengths and lay these about 2-3" apart on a work surface.

step 6

Lay your Fig Leaves (3) down on top of the cooking twine on your work surface, overlapping the leaves as needed to ensure full coverage.

step 7

Salt the fish inside and out with Sea Salt Flakes (to taste).

step 8

Wrap the fish with the fig leaves, securing with the cooking twine, one section at a time until the fish is fully wrapped.

step 9

Heat a gas grill over medium heat for about 10 minutes and then add the fish and Lemon (1/2) halves to the grill.

step 10

Close the lid and grill fish for 5-7 minutes, turn fish and grill the other side for 5-7 minutes.

step 11

Remove fish and lemon halves from the grill and serve each fish with a lemon half. Serve and enjoy.
