No barbecue? No problem. This recipe from James Whetlor works very well cooked in the ground too.

You can also cook one large fish (about 1.5kg/3lb 5oz), using all the paper to wrap it, and double the cooking time. This works very well cooked in the ground too, see instructions on pages 42–4. It will only take 40 minutes or so.
