Baked Stuffed Fish, Chilean Recipe

Versión en español

When I tried this fish was like going back to my grandmother’s kitchen, the flavors were perfect.

It is an old recipe found on?”Cocina Chilena” cookbook by Mariana Bravo Walker,?is a delightful cookbook only if you know how to cook because the recipes have almost no instructions. For example in this recipe does not say the oven temperature and how long to cook it, but the flavors are very Chilean.
