Baked whole fish (Pesce al Forno)

1. Preheat oven to 200°C. Finely dice one tomato and slice remaining one, reserving for later.
2. Heat half of oil in a frying pan on low. Sauté green onion for 3 minutes, until soft. Add diced tomato, cook for another minute. Remove from heat and stir in breadcrumbs, parsley and pine nuts. Season to taste.
3. Make three diagonal cuts through thickest part of each side of fish. Fill cavity with breadcrumb mixture and place fish in baking pan. Season well and scatter any leftover breadcrumb mixture over fish. Top with tomato slices and oregano, drizzle with remaining oil. Cover with foil and bake for 30-35 minutes, until just tender. Serve with lemon wedges.
