2. One dried mushroom. Soak for a minimum of twenty minutes in hot water. Strain and reserve water. Slice mushroom
3. Thumb of ginger, sliced
4. One carrot, cut into thin strips.
5. Bunch of flat spring onions/parsley or coriander including stalks. Slice bunch in half

2. Stack loosely a bunch of spring onion/ flat parsley or coriander at bottom of baking dish.
3. Season fish with salt. Stuff some dried mushrooms, ginger and carrots loosely in fish's stomach and place on top of spring onions/parsley/coriander.
4. Spread rest of vegetables around fish but top fish with tomatoes and lemon slices.
5. Pour quarter cup of water from dried mushroom with a pinch of salt and splash around fish and vegetables.

Note:
1. Cooking time differs due to different oven temperatures.
2. The fish goes very well with the slightly caramelized lemon slices and is delicious with rest of ingredients.
3. Season fish with sea salt ONLY when you are able to place in baking dish to prevent fish from dehydrating.
4. Looks complicated but is so easy and healthy.
