Baked Fish in Salt / سمك القاروص المطبوخ بالملح في الفرن – CookingWithAlia – Episode 821

RECIPE: https://www.cookingwithalia.com/821-baked-fish-in-salt/

INGREDIENTS:
1 seabass fish (600 grams / 1.3 lbs) with scales, gutted
3 egg whites
2 kg (4.4 lbs) rock salt
A handful of fresh cilantro
1 lemon, sliced
Roasted vegetable of your choice
Mayonnaise Carrefour Bio

DIRECTIONS:
1- In a large bowl, place the rock salt and mix with the egg whites.
2- Cover a baking dish with parchment paper. Spread half of the salt mixture over the parchment paper to create a bed of salt then place the fish on top of it.
3- Stuff the sea bass with fresh cilantro and lemon slices.
4- Cover the fish completely with the rest of the salt mixture.
5- Bake in a preheated oven at 180 °C / 350 °F for 20 minutes and until the salt gets a light color.
Note: For every extra 150 grams of fish add 5 more minutes of baking (example: 600gr = 20mins, 750gr = 25mins, 900gr = 30mins, etc.)
6- Remove from the oven and let stand for 10 minutes.
7- Crack the salt crust at the head and tail of the fish, then continue cracking lengthwise on the side of the fish. Gently remove the top layer of salt. Remove and discard the skin from the top of the fish and carefully transfer the top fillet to a platter.
8- Serve with roasted vegetables and Carrefour Bio Mayonnaise.

Potato and Hot Dog Frittata – A Must Try!

Potatoes, eggs & hot dogs , an Italian childhood classic that fed generations and still hits every time. Sure, it’s not fancy… but ask anyone who grew up on this and they’ll pick it over filet mignon any day. Bonus points if you eat it in a sandwich by the beach like a true Italian (I swear it tastes even better at the beach) it’s such a humble thing but I think many many cultures relate to how special dishes like these really are for the soul! Approx recipe and instructions below! 3 medium size russets, peeled and thinly sliced 4 to 6 hot dogs (all beef for me) slices up 6 eggs Plenty of grated parm Plenty of S&P Olive oil I like cooking the potatoes in some olive oil over medium heat until they are about half way cooked (season them with a pinch of salt and pepper) then once there, add the hot dogs and continue cooking until the potatoes are fully cooked, add in the whisked egg and cheese mixture and cook until golden and set on the bottom, I use a fish spatula to kind of “slice it” into 1/4 pieces so it’s easier to flip but honestly this DOES NOT have to be perfect, it’s rustic home food. Cook until fully set then sprinkle more parm and enjoy every single bite!
