I love cooking this meal when I am in a hurry. Everyone has their own parcel.
You can add any vegetables but if they are hard ones precook them first. The bag is only in the oven for about 20 - 40 mins, and everything must be cooked by then.
Fish in a Bag Recipe
serves 1 adult
1 piece of boneless firm fish fillet - monk, salmon or ask your fish supplier
150 ml fish or vegetable stock
1 slice of lemon
1 lemon or my recipe for '' apple cider vinegar dressing '' which is with lemon juice.
90 gr couscous
1 small courgette - thinly sliced
Hand full spinach, thinly sliced
Tomato sliced
Capers
Wide tin, foil depending on the size of the fish.
Method
1 - Cut a large piece of tin foil and fold it in half. Roll the sides tightly to form a bag, leaving the top open. Place on a oven tray.
2 - Pour in the couscous.
3 - Lay the courgette then the spinach on top.
4 - Pour in the stock and sea salt if your stock is unseasoned.
5 - Lay the fish on top, then the tomato, capers, lemon slice and lemon juice or dressing and season the fish.
6 - Gently close the top to stop any steam escaping.
7 - Cook on the tray for about 20 - 30 mins depending on the size of the fish.
You can open to check the fish.
