Ingredients

Servings: 6
  • 1 small bunch of dill and flat parsley
  • 2 Spring onions
  • 1 Organic Lemon
  • 2 pike-perch ready for cooking (à approx. 600 g)
  • 7-10 Tbsp salt, pepper
  • 7-10 Tbsp Oil
  • 8 large double sheets of newsprint
  • baking paper, possibly aluminium foil

Directions

  1. 1

    Soak newspaper in plenty of water. Wash herbs and shake dry. Clean and wash spring onions and cut into rings. Wash lemon hot, dry and cut into slices.

  2. 2

    Wash the zander from the inside and outside and dab dry. Season inside with salt and pepper. Fill with herbs, spring onions and lemon slices. Spread a thin layer of baking paper with oil on one side. Place fish side by side on the oiled side.

  3. 3

    Wrap first in baking paper, then in newspaper.

  4. 4

    Slide the annealed charcoal in the grill tray to the right and left to create a charcoal-free zone in the middle of the grill. Place the fish there and grill indirectly for approx. 1 hour. After about 30 minutes, check that the newspaper is still moist enough to prevent it from burning.

  5. 5

    Possibly put aluminium foil underneath.
