Method untested

Serves 4

 

1. Heat the olive oil in a pan, quickly fry the garlic and ginger, add in the black cabbage, celery batons and fry together until the greens have wilted. Stir in the crab meat and season with salt and pepper, removing it from the heat.

 

2. Place a sheet of greaseproof paper on a bench approximately three times the length of the snapper fillets and brush well with the melted butter. Place a fillet at one end of the paper skin down, season a little and place a spoon full of the crab mixture of top with a sprig of each herb, place a second fillet on top of this, skin up forming a sandwich. Fold the paper up over the fish and fold the edges over each other all the way around forming a parcel. Place it onto a tray and bake in the oven at 200 degrees for 10 minutes.

 

To serve 

1. Serve with the fish still closed in the bag and allow your guests to open.
