Shallot	1-2 onions
Fresh ginger	1 small process

Bay leaf	2 pcs.
Sesame oil	1.5 tbsp. l.

Cooking method

Finely chop the onion, chop the ginger into strips, chili and garlic into rings, grate the zest (only the yellow part!).
Mix all the spices except laurel and chili, pouring sesame oil over them, leave some oil to rub the fish. If you can't find this oil, replace it with olive oil.
Cut off the fins and tail of the fish with scissors, peel off the scales, carefully cut open the stomach and remove the intestines (the gallbladder is on the right just under the ridge near the head), cut out the gills and rinse thoroughly under cold water. Allow to lie down for a while and dry thoroughly with paper towels inside and out.
Measure enough paper for packing - separately for each fish.
Salt and stuff the belly with a mixture of spices, put inside on a bay leaf.
Rub the outside with sesame oil.
Season the outside with salt, sprinkle the spice mixture on one side of the fish and place this side on baking paper.
Sprinkle spices and chili rings on the other side of the fish.
Pack the fish in paper so that the paper does not unfold. You can bend the corners in the opposite direction, so the paper will be fixed.
Leave the fish to marinate in the cold, for example, while you are busy with the side dish.
Bake envelopes in an oven preheated to 200 ° C on a medium level for 10 minutes,
Then remove the fish, and in the oven, turn on the grill or top heater to maximum.
Open the paper crosswise with scissors, unscrew the corners, jamming them so that they do not return to their original position.
Return the fish to the top shelf of the oven for 5 minutes to brown the crust. If the presence of a crust does not bother you, then simply bake the fish not for 10, but for 15 minutes.
Serve in portions directly on paper.
An excellent side dish would be rice or vegetables in any form, for example,

The dish is designed for

Note

This dish is not only tasty, but also very effective due to its serving directly in envelopes. Suitable for the festive table.

And it is also extremely convenient, and this is why: I made preparations for the night!

The fish prepared for baking lay in the refrigerator for about 15 hours right in the envelopes, nothing came out, and of course it was marinated perfectly.
So you can confidently make preparations the day before, and then quickly bake before serving, while the guests knead the salads.

And by the way, you can immediately add a ready-made garnish to the fish in an envelope and bake them together.
