Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1
Place the whole fish in a fish dish or simply in a deep baking dish.
Step 2
Pour cold water over the fish until it is completely covered.
Step 3
Add finely chopped onion, bay leaves, vinegar, and the lemon cut into 4 pieces. Generously sprinkle with salt and a little freshly ground black pepper.
Step 4
Cover with a lid or foil and bring to a boil on the stove. Turn off the heat and let the fish cool.
Step 5
Carefully transfer the fish to a cutting board and gently remove the skin, leaving the head, tail, and fins (it will look more impressive).
Step 6
Transfer the fish to a serving platter and garnish with herbs and lemon wedges.
