Fish in a bag
Ex Big Brother contestant and Twitter sensation Sam Pepper asked his twitarati what we should get him SORTED with. As a vegetarian, well pescartarian to be precise, it was decided that we should go with a seabass recipe. So here is our simple method of cooking fish... in a bag! The method, otherwise known as 'en papillote', is combined with a fresh salsa verde in this quick meal and served with garlicy roasted new potatoes.
