Here are the necessary ingredients to prepare a white fish papillote with celery and apple for 4 people:
4 frozen white fish fillets (such as hake or haddock)
2 celery stalks
1 red apple
juice of half a lemon
2 tablespoons of olive oil
½ teaspoon of garlic powder
½ teaspoon of ground ginger
salt
To make this white fish fillet with celery and apple, start by preparing the apple and celery stuffing.
1- Wash the celery stalks. Set aside about ten celery leaves for later in the recipe.
2- Peel the stalks using a paring knife to remove the strings, then cut them into small pieces.
3- Wash and peel the apple, then cut it into small cubes.
1- In a small bowl, mix the lemon juice with olive oil.
2- Add garlic powder, ginger powder, and chopped celery leaves.
3- Reserve this marinade for assembling the white fish papillote with celery and apple.
This white fish papillote with celery and apple is steamed.
1- Place a large sheet of parchment paper in the steamer basket.
2- Place the still frozen white fish fillets in the center of the paper.
3- Arrange the celery and apple garnish around the fish. Salt the entire papillote.
4- Spread the olive oil marinade over the fish fillets before closing the papillote.
1- Cook this white fish papillote with celery and apple for 15 to 20 minutes.
2- Check the fish's cooking by using a knife. The fish is cooked when its flesh falls apart in flakes.
Note: for this recipe, it is easier to use frozen fish fillets as the papillote filling needs at least 15 minutes of cooking time.
If you are using fresh fish, you should start by steaming the filling and then adding the fish fillets afterwards. Fresh or thawed fish only requires 10 minutes of steaming. If you do not follow this two-step process, your fish will be overcooked.
Serve this white fish fillet papillote with celery and apple with a starch such as mashed potatoes or sweet potato. The combination of crunchy celery and soft apples is both delicious and unique. However, if you prefer a more classic fish papillote recipe, you can try the white fish papillote with leeks.
