Ingredients to make baked:
1. Clean the congrium removing the viscera and cutting the fins or asks in the fish market. It is important to comment that the finest part of the congrium, approximately in the middle of the fish, is usually too thorny, therefore, cut it almost in half. Also remove your head and guide her to make a fish broth or fumet. Then, cut thick slices with half the widest congrium, which is the least thorns part. You can also prepare it entirely without cutting or cutting fillets.
Trick: Try that the congrium is as big as possible to make beautiful slices.
2. Prepare a masted to aliñar the baked congrium. To do this, introduce olive oil, salt, parsley and garlic and crush into a food chopper. We also add a chilli to give it a spicy touch, but it is totally optional. Likewise, you can use a blender, a mortar or an electric blender to make the sauce.
Trick: Preheat the oven to 180 ºC with heat up and down.
3. Place the fish slices on an oven tray, previously greased with olive oil, and distribute the anterior sauce with the help of a spoon. Bake the congrium in green sauce for 15 minutes, placing the tray in the lower half (a little below the center) to prevent fish from burning.
Trick: It is not necessary to cook the fish in excess, since it would lose all its properties and juicy texture.
