Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Cut the fish into two-centimeter pieces, skinless and boneless.
Step 2
Slice the onion into half-rings and the garlic into thin slivers. Sprinkle the onion and garlic with salt and squeeze the juice from half a lemon over them. Gently massage the mixture with your hands to release the juices. It's best to do this while wearing disposable gloves.
Step 3
Add the fish, sprinkle with pepper, pour in the oil, and mix thoroughly with your hands.
Step 4
After just half an hour, the lightly salted dish can be considered ready; simply remove all the onion and garlic, and it can be served as an exquisite appetizer.
