• 6 scallions, shredded
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 2 Tbsp. soy sauce
• 1 Tbsp. wine vinegar
• 1 tsp. sesame oil
• 1 tsp. red pepper flakes (optional)
• Hot cooked rice, to serve if desired
• Chopped cilantro, to serve

Directions:

Prepare the grill, or preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.

Arrange each cod fillet in the centre of its own large square of oil. Scatter over the ginger, scallions and garlic. Drizzle each piece of fish with a little soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil, and sprinkle with a few red pepper flakes, if using. Pull the corners of the foil together and fold over the edges to make a tent around each fillet. Grill over medium-hot coals for 8 minutes until the fish is just cooked. Or place the fish bundles on a baking sheet and bake in the oven for 20 minutes.

Serve the bundles whole if you wish to capture that aromatic moment when you open them; alternately, remove the fish from the bundles and transfer to warmed serving plates. Serve with rice sprinkled with chopped cilantro, if desired.
