The Meal

I forgot to add this other tradition to my last post. For Easter, and many other times through out the year, we enjoyed fish when I was growing up. This recipe is my favourite and comes from my very talented father - thanks Dad! It's for a baked, whole fish which is not only delicious but quick, easy and good for you. As for the name, I'm not sure where it came from. It was always my favourite request at birthday time and I guess that's just what I called it!!
I hope you enjoy it as much as I do and don't forget the crusty bread to mop up the yummy juices!!

The Meal:
