Thread: How to cook a whole flounder.

There are many ways to do it but if you want to cook more than one at a time and want a consistently perfectly cooked flounder this in my opinion is the only way to go.
Turn on oven to 180c no fan or any of that shit just on at 180.
Now prep the flounder, this means take out the guts.They are one of the easiest fish to gut but make sure you get the little green bile sack out or it will taint the fish bitter.
Give it a rinse off and de slime but no need to worry about scaling.
Gather your ingredients, this is what I used on this occasion but whatever you have available and like.
Flounder loves butter.....thats pretty much non negotiable. Garlic also goes very well with it.
Chilli goes with everything but is not compulsory.



Place a slice of butter on foil,flounder on top then sprinkle your sliced accompliments on top with a generous serving of salt and pepper and more butter.



Fold foil over so its sealed kinda.

Then again so there is no area for juices to run out too,keep em all in around the fish.



For sea temp fish.
18 min for a small 23 min for a large.
Add 3 min for fish that have been overnight in a beer temp fridge.

Enjoy.

Yeah have heard that. It's also possible for reverse to happen, ie people lose the tolerance but slower. Malays for instance would have chilli in cornflakes ffs, though once they are here for a little while and they go home, they get blown apart hahahaha

Yeah man. In Thailand i asked for ‘thai hot make me cry’ everywhere i went. Got used to it. Got back home and went and had a thai curry down the Mt and asked for the same. Little thai lady said ‘my kinda man’ as she took my order. Blew my fucking head off!!! Couldnt eat it all. Funny bit, my mate rolls past and then comes in, ‘i says bro i cant eat this, you hungry?’ Scoffed it, died on the footpath
