​Oven baked fish on stove top

One of the simplest meals but impressive on the palette. It could just as easily be cooked on the BBQ if you have the facilities.
Here I have used sage leaves (freeze dried at home before leaving) 

* 2 salmon fillets (or any other thick fillet/cutlet of fish)
* 2 pieces of foil sprayed with olive oil or greased
* lemon grass, ginger, chilli,
* a few slivers of fresh or preserved lemon,
* green onions or garlic
* herbs
* butter
* salt

1. Place salted fish in centre of foil. Sprinkle with lemon grass, ginger, chilli, a few slivers of fresh or preserved lemon, green onions if you have them or a small amount of minced garlic, sage or other fragrant herb. Top with a piece of butter
2. Wrap the fish to seal
3. Heat frying pan place a double layer of foil in bottle to help prevent burning. Place fish parcels on foil and cover with lid (I carry a small pizza tray which doubles as a lid when needed).
4. Cook on low heat until cooked through - check after 10 mins.

Serve with buttered rice or jacket potatoes
