Simple dinner: sea bass in coconut flakes

That was one delicious meal for two.

BAKED SEA BASS

Sea bass - two one-pounders, cleaned and scaled (ask to do the dirty work at the counter) with tail and head on.
1 lemon.
2 tbl spoons of coarse salt.
3-4 tbl spoons of shredded coconut.
Few cloves of garlic finely chopped.
Even number of bay leaves. 
Some extra virgin olive oil.
1 oven,  1 tray.

Squeeze one lemon with lemon juicer:
Stainless Steel Citrus Juicer





Glass Citrus Juicer
 or




Dip sea bass in lemon juice and roll in the mix of coarse salt and coconut.
Pour some olive oil on the tray, lay our fish, staff with chopped garlic and bay leaves (just enough to enhance the taste) and  bake in preheated oven for 22 min at 425F or something along these lines (don't burn the upper crust). If you bass was fresh, it came out great.

SALAD
Simple salad of ripe "beef steak" tomato rounds and onion rounds, sprinkled with salt and unrefined oil.


WINE
Chardonnay Clos Du Bois (California, Sonoma Valley).
