On the vegetables, sprinkle a little salt and add a minimum amount of oil, less than a tablespoon will be enough. Above, we place the fish, which must be open and clean, just as we have asked the fishmonger and salt and pepper inside. Too we can ask to give us the loins instead of using whole fish.
