• Measure the soy sauce and lemon juice into a small bowl. Add the cornflour and mix until the are no lumps, then stir in the sweet chilli sauce, garlic and chopped coriander (if using).
• Cut the carrot into thin julienne's and top and tail the beans or trim the asparagus spears and cut them diagonally into 5cm pieces. Place a 30x40 cm piece of baking paper (or foil) on a dinner plate (this stops the sauce running off) and place half the vegetables in the middle. Place one serving of the fish on top of the vegetables, then drizzle the stack with half the sauce. Fold up the edges of the baking paper (or foil) sheets and seal loosely with paperclips. Repeat the process on another sheet of paper or foil.

Divide the coconut, lime zest and juice, and soy between each fillet. Bring up the sides of the foil, then scrunch the edges and sides together to make 2 sealed parcels.
• Put the parcels on a baking tray and bake for 10-15 mins. Tip the rice into a pan with plenty of water, and boil for 12-15 mins or until cooked. Drain well. Serve the fish on the rice, drizzle over the chilli sauce and scatter with sliced chilli. Serve with broccoli and lime wedges.

CHILLI CHICKEN PARCELS

• Spray pan with oil and heat.
• Cook onion until soft.
• Add chicken mince, garlic and ginger. Cook until chicken is browned.
• Add pepper, cook until soft.
• Add fish sauce and sweet chilli sauce to taste.
• Add cilantro.
• Scoop one spoonful of rice and one spoonful of chicken mixture into a lettuce leaf. Parcel it up to eat with your hands. Yum-o!
• Based on NataschAnn's helpful comments I have made some improvements to this recipe. Firstly, I have changed step 6 to read "cilantro" instead of "coriander". They are one in the same, in Australia we call it coriander, and that's what I had written in the ingredients section. However, the Zaar's automatic ingredient formatter changed my coriander to cilantro and confusion has ensued! That'll learn me -- Second, I have rewritten step 7 so it is clearer to understand. The original intent of this recipe is to keep the rice separate from the chicken mixture, but really it's up to you - feel free to combine them before spooning into the lettuce, like in Stormylee's pic (which is beautiful by the way, thank you Stormylee!). I hope this clears up any issues. Thanks again for the constructive criticism.
