This is not a novel idea, but is contemporary to certain extent. The idea of baking fish fillets the Italian way with herbs, white wine, olive oil, salad plants, pepper and other such zesty stuff, tastes better than the traditional fried fish. It secures the flavor of the fish and also enhances it. Well, it is a good break for those who had been quite categorical with fried fish.
The Pinoy blogger was successful in breaking the fried fish bias in his family. The baked river cobbler fillets, inspired from an episode of Aventura in the Discovery Travel and Living Channel, proved to be a hit with the children of Pinoy blogger.
River cobbler was a great hunt in the fish market, as it is one of the rare species found and is famous for its delicate flesh...baking it would have made it softer. The only problem that might come while serving the fillets is that one might not find a whole fillet on her platter.
