Put a good sprig of coriander on top and season with a little sea salt and black pepper. Squeeze the juice of one lime over each fish and seal. Bake in the oven for 10 - 15 minutes at 180°C Taking a wok or heavy sauce pan heat the vegetable oil. Add the pak choi, sweetcorn, carrot, garlic, chilli, ginger, lemon grass and mushrooms and stir fry for approx one minute. Then add the spring onions and cook for a further 30 seconds.
