- 1 red snapper
- 4 tablespoons red curry paste
- Banana leaves
- Lime wedges, to serve
- Rub the curry paste all over the snapper, making sure to cover it well. Refrigerate for a few hours, if possible.
- Light the barbecue for direct cooking.
- Make a parcel with the banana leaves by overlapping them on a flat surface and placing the snapper on top. Close the parcel by folding the leaves over and transfer to the barbecue. Cooking times will depend on the size of the snapper, so cook for 10 minutes, then check every 5 to see if it is cooked through.
- This is lovely served with greens, such as bok choi.
