    Instructions

    (Stops screen from sleeping)

    1 Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Place sweet potato rounds in a microwave-safe dish. Cover and microwave on high for 2½ minutes or until just tender. Drain and set aside to cool slightly.

    2 Cut four 40cm-long pieces of foil. Lightly spray one side of each piece with oil. Combine coconut milk, lime juice, turmeric, ginger and coriander root in a small bowl. Arrange a quarter of the sweet potato slices, slightly overlapping, in centre of one piece of foil. Top with a fish fillet and drizzle with a quarter of the coconut milk mixture. Sprinkle with a quarter of the chilli, then wrap up foil to form a fish parcel. Repeat to make four parcels in total.

    3 Place fish parcels on prepared tray and bake for 15 minutes or until fish is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

    4 Meanwhile, steam snow peas and bok choy until just tender. Open up parcels and carefully transfer to plates. Sprinkle with coriander leaves and extra chilli. Serve with steamed greens and lime wedges.

      A lovely dish if you are looking for something a little different to the usual pan-fried fish recipes. Beautifully cooked fish, delicate spices and just enough sauce to keep the completed plate interesting and flavourful.
