Baked Thai fish

4 Trout fillets
1 stalk lemongrass, finely chopped
Small knob ginger, peeled and finely chopped
1 red chilli, seeded and finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
1 tbls fish sauce
Juice of 2 limes
1 tbls sugar
A handful of roughly chopped coriander to garnish

Heat the oven to 200°C/400°F/Gas 6.
Place 1 fillet of fish, skin side down in the centre of a large sheet of tin foil
Mix all the other ingredients together to make a paste and spoon a quarter of the mixture over the fillet
Place another fillet on top skin side up thus making a sandwich, then tightly seal with the foil to make a parcel.
Repeat with the other fillets and bake in the oven for 10 to 15 mins.

Open the parcels at the table and serve remainder of sauce in a separate bowl
