  1. STEP 1

    STEP 1

    How to fry fish over a fire and which one is better to use? It is recommended to cook fatty, meaty fish with a small number of bones on the grill. An excellent option is trout, salmon, chum salmon, tuna or sea bass. Carp or crucian carp will turn out great. The recipe used medium-sized tiger trout. Gut the fish, remove the scales and remove the gills.

  2. STEP 2

    STEP 2

    Grind the peppercorns in a mortar. It's amazingly flavorful and complements the trout perfectly. You can use ready-made ground black or allspice.

  3. STEP 3

    STEP 3

    Wash the trout and dry with a towel or napkins. Remove all excess liquid. Sprinkle salt on all sides and inside of the fish. Also season with black pepper and dry rosemary to taste. Rosemary perfectly complements saltwater fish. If you have carp or crucian carp, then instead of rosemary, take, for example, basil or a pinch of oregano.

  4. STEP 4

    STEP 4

    Squeeze the juice of half a lemon on top. Next, pour olive oil over the fish.

    Using massaging movements, evenly distribute lemon juice, oil and spices throughout the carcass.

  6. STEP 6

    STEP 6

    Place the fish in a plastic bag or wrap it in cling film and leave it that way for a while. Typically, small-sized fish require about 30-40 minutes to marinate.

  7. STEP 7

    At this time, light the grill. When the fire burns out and the coals remain, you can proceed to the next step.

  8. STEP 8

    Grease a clean, dry grate well with oil. Place the trout on the grill.

  9. STEP 9

    STEP 10

    When the fish is almost ready, pour a small amount of lemon juice on both sides and leave it on the grill for some time. The baking time for trout depends on the heat of the coals and the size of the fish (I baked for a total of 20 minutes).
