Fish baked in foil

1 piece of foil per serving
cut the fish filet into serving pieces (1 piece/person)

chop or dice all of your vegetables small
you can use carrots, potatoes, celery, onions, turnip
lemon slices - thin

Heat 3 tbsp some white wine with 1 tbsp lemon juice to boiling (to
remove the alcohol and it keeps the flavor of the wine) per serving
1 tsp of butter or olive oil per serving serving

Place foil on a tray and make it into a well to keep the liquid from
coming out.
Add vegetables to the foil. Place fish on top of vegetables.
Pour lemon and wine mixture. Add the butter or oil to the top.
Top with 2-3 pieces of lemon slices with rind.
Fold up the foil to trap in the liquid and secure tightly by pressing
edges together while folding.Carefully move it to the baking tray...

Bake in a 350F oven for 30 minutes.

Add a toss salad as the starter...
Serve fish hot in the foil... one serving per person.
Serve with rice, 1 cup cooked/person.

This is a favorite in Japan... a really easy recipe.
You can use any type of white fish or salmon.
Some people like soy sauce as a seasoning on this... I prefer lots of lemon...
