Roll your sleeves up and make sure you try Manu’s Black Bream Papillote. It’s delicious, plus it’s served  in foil, so minimal washing up!

Ingredients

2-4 Black bream fillets, skin on and pin boned

1 punnet assorted cherry tomatoes, cut in half

1 vine of baby truss tomatoes, cut in half

½ cup mixed olives, pitted

½ cup caper berries

1 lemon

¼ bunch thyme

2-4 cloves garlic

Olive oil, to drizzle

 

Method

  1. Lay a long piece of foil on a benchtop. Place a square of baking paper in the center of the bottom half of the foil sheet and place a piece of bream, skin side down on the paper. Season with sea salt and pepper and turn the fish over.
  2. Scatter over tomatoes, olives and 8-10 caper berries. Thinly slice a clove of garlic and scatter it over the fish. Add a few sprigs of thyme and a generous drizzle of olive oil. Finish with a good squeeze of lemon.
  3. Fold the foil over to cover the fish and using a rolling motion, wrap up the joined ends of the foil to enclose the fish and not let any air escape.
  4. Bake at 170°C for 7-8 minutes, remove the parcel from the oven and place on a serving plate. Gently cut into the foil, letting any steam escape before peeling it back to reveal your perfectly cooked piece of black bream. Bon appetite!!!
