The French term en papillote translates as \u2018in parchment\u2019, literally describing the cooking method which involves cooking fish in a pouch and baking in the oven. Check out this wild twist with Bull Kelp and the tasty Butterfish.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
For the Pebre sauce.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Finely dice the red onion, half a head of garlic, the capsicum, half of the spring onion & the coriander (yeah, I know is hard to dice that one\u2026) and place them in a small saucepan, add a pinch of salt, a dash of vinegar, COVER with Oil (3\/4 rice, \u00bc Olive) and put on very low heat for about 5 minutes, just to bring the aromas together. Let it cool down and go fishing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n For the Orange emulsion.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Peel the orange and place it in a blender together with the other half of the spring onion, the rest of the garlic, a full scoop of honey, the parsley, the chilli (make sure you clean the seeds and stem away!) and 1 full cup of Rice oil, add another dash of the rice vinegar and blend like no one is watching. It will look like a proper sauce when you stop. Now go find the bull kelp!<\/p>\n\n\n\n Time for action.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you have it all, cut the kelp blade in half and carefully open it through the middle with the help of a fishing knife. Doing this from one side, but not going all the way through, will make it take a bag form. You\u2019ll have to make 2 bags.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Gut and scale both the fish, make sure all the scales are gone! Then do small shallow cuts on each side of each fish, just to let them absorb more flavour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Salt & pepper each green bone and place them inside each bag, carefully pour 5 tablespoons of one sauce in one bag and repeat with the other sauce in the other bag. Make sure each fish is well covered in their respective sauce, add a few thin slices of lemon, and close.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Now, place into a hot oven, bbq, grill, or any other heat source until just cooked through. Use a skewer to test the firmness of the flesh – it is cooked when there is no resistance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
