Step 1
Preheat oven to 200°C/400°F (180°C fan).
Step 2
Prepare parcel - Place a 2 x 25cm / 10" piece of foil on a work surface. Top with a piece of parchment/baking paper slightly smaller. Place fish on paper.
Step 3
Season fish & wrap - Sprinkle each side of the fish with a SMALL pinch of salt and pepper. Drizzle the top of each fish with 1/2 tsp sake. Form a parcel - make a parcel with the paper first, then the foil. (See video or step photos).
Step 4
Bake - Place parcels on a tray. Bake for 12 minutes or until the internal temperature is 55°C/130°F (I pierce thermometer through foil) or the fish flesh flakes (open to check). Thin fish cooks fast when enclosed!
Step 5
Rest 3 min - Put each parcel on a plate and unwrap, folding down the sides to create a “boat” that will catch the sauce that you can squidge the fish in. Rest for 3 minutes - heat the oil while it rests.
Step 6
Heat oil until hot in a tiny saucepan or small pan over medium heat.
Step 7
Sizzle! Top the fish with green onion, ginger and chilli. Drizzle with soy and sesame oil. Pour oil all over the green onion and ginger - it will sizzle dramatically!
Step 8
Serve immediately. Eat fish out of foil, squidging the flaky pieces well in the sauce before eating. See post for what I served it with!
