Can anyone tell me the best way to cook a barracuda?
I always fry them in oil with some garlic.I like them this way but I would like to try something new! :P
Spitec one of the best ways i find for cooking barracuda is cartocio. When i have one which is over a kilo i fillet it removing the bone in the middle as it doesnt have any other bones. I then but it into 4 pieces and putting the meat facing upwords on the dish. i garnish and season with finely chopped tomatoes, some garlic, mint and basil and salt & pepper. then some white whine and some olive oil u ejdli xinti tikol :p
Thank you big boy I will try it when i will catch some again.Shall I put it in foil or straight in a dish?
put it strait in a dish and cover in foil.
il lizz huta tajba meta tkun nadifa imma gieli naraha ftit xotta jekk ma taghmiliex ma forma ta zalza
Thank you big boy.Ghalhekk tamlila l-inbid u tatija bil-foil Granitu halli ma tixxutax ;)
ehh ok .. inbid ma naghmilx meta nsajjar jien ghax ma jogobnix
l inbid jatija toma tajba l huta
Last question big boy.For how much do you leave it in the oven?
20 mins not more man @ 200 degrees celcius
jekk tkun thobbu ifem, kollox niekol imma l inbid u xorb ghedewwa ahna ehh.... gieli taghmel ommi xorta ma tantx niggustah l ikel bih intemu :-\

u can add water instead of white wine granitu when preparing fish 'al cartoccio'. I prefer water when the fish is very delicate like bass for example and I add more wine when the fish has a stronger taste like red mullet.

claudio, if red mullet is trill it is not my favorite fish. i never shoot it cause i don't like it's taste but my mother loves them.... she's the cook i am the sort of the "bread winner"- fish winner in this case....
well groupers do have a good taste but they are becoming rare and never caught one because the examples i see are too small.. 1kg range. mullet if clean is an excellent fish so are saragi species(grufulatori), especially the mingus, which has a sort of sweet taste
i prefer to fillet barracudas put in a special eggs/ bcrumbs paste and off in boiling oil .........fish and chips u viva il cholesterol
