How to make it

01

Slash the fish at the sides and rub it with salt, pepper and lemon juice.

02

Grind the garlic, ginger and chilli to a paste and work it into the cuts and the cavity.

03

Pass the banana leaves over a flame so they turn pliable and stop cracking.

04

Lay tomato and onion slices on a leaf, the fish on them, then more tomato and spring onion.

05

Wrap in three leaves into a tight parcel and tie it with a strip of the same leaf.

06

Set the parcels on the coals and bake them fifteen minutes a side.

07

Serve them still in the leaf, with boiled cassava or rice.
