Steps

  • Preheat the oven to 200°C and grease a large piece of foil with butter.
  • Slash each side of the fish three times and insert chopped coriander into the gaps.
  • Place coriander stalks in the fish cavity and season with salt and pepper.
  • Wrap the fish in foil to create a parcel with the seam on the side.
  • Bake for 30 minutes, turning the parcel over after 15 minutes.
  • Mix chopped cucumber, chilli, tomatoes, grapefruit, lime, ginger, oil, and chutney together.
  • Transfer the cooked fish to a platter and remove the skin.
  • Gently heat the salsa in a pan, stir in the final coriander, and serve over the fish.
