1 Whole fish, weighing a total
-of 2 lbs. together (Owen
-calls for either mullet,

3 Chiles (either frutescen or

Clean the fish. Pound the chiles, candlenuts, and ginger together into a
paste. Add all the other ingredients, and rub the resulting mixture onto
the fish, inside and out. Wrap the fish in foil, refrigerate for at least
30 minutes. Bake in a 375 F oven for 15 minutes. Just before serving,
unwrap the fish and put under the grill for 5 minutes.
