Steps:
- Put the onion, parsley and salt in a fish poacher and fill with water to a depth of 4 inches. Bring to a boil over high heat. Place the fish in the water on a poaching rack, reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
- With a sharp knife, remove the head and the tail and set them aside. Continue to cook the rest of the fish until the flesh parts easily from the bone, 5 minutes more. Remove the fish from the water and set aside to cool, about 20 minutes. Discard the poaching water along with the onion and parsley.
- Meanwhile, place the potatoes and carrots in a small saucepan and cover with cool, well-salted water. Bring to a gentle boil over medium-high heat and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- Remove the flesh from the fish, discarding the bones and skin. In a large bowl, toss the fish with the potatoes, carrots, olive oil and lemon juice. Add 3 tablespoons of the mayonnaise and salt to taste and combine.
- Place the head and tail of the fish at opposite ends of a large platter and mound the fish mixture between them, reconstructing the shape of a fish. Cover the fish mixture with the remaining mayonnaise and sprinkle with capers. Serve at room temperature.
