batter(flour, beaten egg, salt and pepper...... if you want add some ale/beer) and fry...... thats the best option........
or else aljotta and try keep the fish in chunks (neqija mhux taffiga)
or else in the oven in a dish closed with foil (drizzle with olive oil, white wine, garlic, onions, black olives (ta malta), some sliced tomatoes and lemon juice....... then add a bit of a herb of your choice from basil mint or mewrqtux) boun apetit..... i suggest the first one

I agree with Robby, the first option is the best

I use first option too. But first it tends to break up easily when turning the pieces and second it stays a little oily inside. Any tips?

do not deep fry it...... shallow fry it in a pan and after it is cooked dry the oil of the fish in some tissue paper.

I fry it like lampuki - dont know if thats deep or shallow...
But the oil I'm talking about is the fish oil not the frying oil. Maybe it needs more cooking time?

lampuki are shallow fried..chips are deep fried..... what you could do is try cut it smaller..... i don't remember the fish being oily though, just very white and tasty meat

most fish taste better undercooked rather than over cooked, if they're fresh ofcourse!

it will be ready when the flesh comes off the bone almost effortlessly when you move it with a fork or knife.
