Cooking StepsHow to cook Roasted Halibut Head with Spring Onions step by step
-
Step 1Use kitchen shears to open the halibut head, remove the gills, and rub with pepper and salt. Coarse black pepper and sea salt give a more aromatic flavor.
-
Step 2Layer the spring onions on the baking tray — simply tear them by hand.
-
Step 3Roast in the oven at 180-200°C (350-400°F) for 20-25 minutes.
-
Step 4If using a small head (about 200g), it is already ready to eat at this point — tender, juicy, and flavorful. If you prefer it more well-done, remove the spring onions and roast for another 5-8 minutes. The spring onions can be eaten first — they turn wonderfully crispy and fragrant.
-
Step 5After the extra roasting, the skin becomes firmer with a slight char, and the milky aroma intensifies. Both versions are delicious in their own way.
