Well I cooked it as per Amanda's way but fish was a bit soggy so not sure if it had too much milk in tray or cooked it to long.It was in for about 25 minutes.Got to say I could not tell the difference in taste to a bit of cod cooked at  the same time.It was cooked as an experiment to see if I would like eating whiting when I come to live in Turkey as cod is the only white fish I eat.I could not believe the difference in price.Whiting £1.60lb, cod £4.30lb in Morrisons.

I cook white fish in a pan on ceramic hob.  Milk and a bit butter and black pepper.   Roll fish like a swiss roll.

I put it on tin foil, add a little olive oil, lemon juice and dill then put it under the grill. This is good for Lemon Sole, Grayling,Plaice,Turbot etc.,
I don't eat Whiting as where I was brought up in Liverpool it was always referred to in the Fish Market as "invalids fish" as it was bland and very mild on the stomach, that has always put me off eating it.

Unless its a huge fillet of any fish 30 mins is far too long 10 mins should be enough fish should be slightly under cooked if the bone just pulls out its over done when its over done thats when you get the bones in your mouth ,the fish on the main bone should be a bit translucent so it holds all the bones together trust me .bon appetite

If you type Ken Hom into your google bar he comes with some fab recipes for white fish using ingredients you can actually buy in this area.  We are now playing around with Indian marinades and they are turning out, very much, OK.

Put whiting on tin foil, add some chopped onion and parsley, a splash of olive oil, lemon juice, and some black pepper. wrap into a parcel and cook in oven (180c) for about 15 mins.  ;)
