Baking the Fish
Ingredients
4- 5 oz cod fillets
4 pieces okra, thinly sliced
1 cup sugar snap peas
10 cherry tomatoes, halved
1 tbs oil

Place a small portion of sugar snap peas at the center of a 15 inch x 15 inch parchment paper. Layer the cod over the peas. Top off with okra and add the halved tomatoes.
Pour some of the coconut sauce over the fish. Secure the content by tying the four corners of the paper together at the center with a twine. Place parcels on a sheet pan. Bake in a 375˚ F preheated oven for 12 to 15 minutes. When it is ready, open parcels, garnish with cilantro and basil leaves. Serve immediately with steamed
black sticky rice or baguette.
