What it is
A whole sea bass or sea bream (levrek or çipura) expertly baked in the oven until tender and flaky, seasoned with generous amounts of olive oil, lemon slices, fresh dill, parsley, and garlic. Naturally low-carb and incredibly flavorful.
Key ingredients
Whole sea bass/sea bream, olive oil, lemon, dill, parsley, garlic, salt, black pepper.
Optional tweaks
Ensure no starchy vegetables (like potatoes) are baked with the fish. Request service with a simple green salad only, no rice or bread.
Watch out for
Hidden sugar in lemon dressings or marinade (unlikely for simple baked fish, but worth confirming).
