Tonight I made Baked Wrapped Tilapia.  I got the recipe off the Epicurious App (but you can also find it here).  Apparently it is Tori Amos' favorite recipe.  It couldn't be easier to make and it tastes delicious.

Baked Wrapped Tilapia


Makes 4 servings


Topping

• 1-inch cube fresh gingerroot, finely chopped or grated
• 2 cloves garlic, peeled and finely chopped or grated
• 2 green onions (green part only), finely chopped
• Fresh chile to taste
• 1 cup finely chopped cilantro
• 2 tbsp grapeseed (or safflower) oil
• Dash of toasted sesame oil
• Dash of soy sauce
• Dash of fish sauce
• 4 tsp dark maple syrup

Tilapia

• 4 fillets (4 oz each) fresh tilapia (or other firm-fleshed whitefish)
• 4 large banana leaves (I used unbleached parchment paper)

Preheat oven to 400°F. Combine all topping ingredients in a bowl. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place a fillet on each banana leaf (or sheet of parchment paper) and divide topping evenly among them, spreading it over the top. Fold each banana leaf (or parchment paper) over to form a packet around each fillet and seal the edge of each packet with a small piece of aluminum foil, crimping it tightly. Place on a baking sheet and bake 25 to 30 minutes

We have yet to iron out all of the sleep wrinkles with the little miss and so things like this have been happening while we are out and about:
