Ingredients

FISH PARCEL

  • 150g market fish
  • ½ baby bok choy, sliced in half lengthways
  • ½ carrot, peeled into ribbons
  • 2-3 teaspoons Thai sauce

THAI SALAD

  • ¾ cup frozen edamame beans
  • 1/8 red onion
  • ½ Lebanese cucumber
  • ¼ capsicum
  • 20g Thai vinaigrette
  • ¼-½ teaspoon rice wine vinegar
  • 1/8 teaspoon fish sauce

TO SERVE

  • 2 tablespoons coriander, roughly chopped
  • 1 tablespoon chopped peanuts
  • Remaining Thai sauce
  • 1-2 lime wedges

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220ºC. Bring a full kettle to the boil. Set aside an oven tray. Prepare ingredients.
  2. Pat fish dry, remove any remaining bones or scales and cut larger pieces in half.
  3. Lay a sheet of baking paper on top of a piece of foil (both about 30 x 30cm) on a clean bench.
  4. Place bok choy and carrot ribbons in the centre, season and top with fish. Drizzle over Thai sauce and season.
  5. Wrap into a parcel by pulling two sides up and rolling together downwards towards fish. Twist each end of the parcel tightly, ensuring it’s completely sealed. It should look like a Christmas cracker.
  6. Place on a baking tray and bake for 12-16 minutes, until fish is cooked through and carrot and bok choy are tender.
  7. Place edamame beans in a small, heat-proof bowl with a pinch of salt and cover with boiling water. Cover with a plate and leave for 1-2 minutes, until bright green and tender. Drain and rinse under cold running water to cool, then leave to drain well.
  8. Very thinly slice onion; cut cucumber in half lengthways then thinly slice; thinly slice capsicum. Place in a small bowl along with all remaining Thai salad ingredients. Toss to combine and season.
  9. To serve, place fish parcel onto a plate. Open carefully and top with coriander, chopped peanuts and a drizzle of remaining Thai sauce. Squeeze over lime wedges. Serve Thai salad on the side.
