Barbecue Sea Bass

If you like aniseed then this barbecue sea bass recipe is for you. Not only does it have lots of fennel seeds but it gets a final flambé with Pastis when ready for serving which adds flavor and of course makes for an impressive presentation.

TIP - If you don’t have Pastis to hand, you can get away with Pernod, Ricard, Ouzo or Raki to name a few other aniseed aperitifs. (To be honest I think that they all taste pretty much the same if you ask me).

TIP - A fish basket will help you turn the fish with confidence and keep the fish in one piece for perfect presentation.

This is what I mean by a barbecue fish basket

Ingredients:-

  • 1 medium sea bass gutted, cleaned and scaled
  • 4 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 teaspoons fennel seeds
  • 2 large fennel bulbs thinly sliced
  • 60 ml or 4 tablespoons Pastis
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method:-

Make 4 or 5 incisions on the diagonal across the sea bass and drop in the fennel seeds. Season with salt and pepper, place it in the fish basket and grill for approximately 20 minutes turning it once at half time.

Place the thinly sliced fennel bulbs into the olive oil to ensure they are fully coated and then place them on the barbecue grill for about 6 – 8 minutes taking care not to burn them.

When everything is cooked, plate it out on a serving plate with the fish as center of attention and the grilled fennel around the periphery. Pour the Pastis into a shallow frying pan over the heat, set alight to it and pour the flaming Pastis over the sea bass and serve immediately.
