1 lime, sliced thin 1 lemon, sliced thin
salt pepper

2. Combine soy, rice wine, brown sugar & ginger in a small bowl & mix to combine.

4. Lay out a large length of aluminum foil on the bench (you can use two sheets of the same length to make is stronger).
5. Rip apart the coriander & lay into the center of the foil.  Layer the lime & fresh lemon slices over the top of the coriander.  Lay the marinated fish into the center of the coriander/lemon/lime bed.  Sprinkle with salt & pepper.
6. Layer another sheet of foil over the top of the fish & fold in all sides of the foil tightly to make a fully air tight parcel.
