Andy & Jen Say:-

I know a lot of people do not like coking fish with the Heads on.. While in a lot of peoples oppinion it adds flavour I don't really think it makes that much difference if you don't like it so why not fillet the fish and then reduce the cooking times or alternatively layer the fish Tomatoes and basil in a Cassarole dish and cook in the oven.. When I cook this dish, although it is not traditional I like to add some crushed Garlic at the begining of cooking. I am not a huge fan of Trout especially the farmed variety and as that is all I seem to be able to get hold of I find the Garlic inproves the flavour somewhat.
