50-75g feta cheese
Fresh baby herbs, to garnish

lemon juice and softened coconut oil, to dress
DIRECTIONS
1.
Mix together the coconut oil, 1 Tbsp finely chopped fennel tops, lemon juice
and zest until you have a paste. Rub the paste into the clean fish cavity, and
onto the skin. Add fennel and lemon slices into the cavity. Tie the fish in two
places using kitchen string so that it is secure. Roast along with the used
lemon halves over hot coals for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until cooked
through and the fish flakes easily using a fork.
2. Meanwhile, prepare your salad by laying the ingredients prettily onto a serving platter.
3. Squeeze over any excess juices from the roasted lemon and serve immediately.
