Layout a large sheet of greaseproof paper or foil and make a pleat down the centre. Tip on your salad and lay your fish on top. Lay your lemon on top of the fish and finish with a drizzle of oil, a splash of white wine vinegar, salt and pepper.

Pull up the sides of your greaseproof or tin foil and fold over or scrunch to create a little fish parcel. Roast in the oven for 18-20 minutes.
