- 1 slice of limes
- 1/2 green Mango, peeled and chopped
- 2 tbsp plain Yogurt
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil

Method
1. Preheat the oven to 200°C/gas 6.2. Place the sea bass fillet on the banana leaf. Sprinkle over the garlic paste, ginger paste, a pinch of salt, chopped chives, chilli, fresh coriander, pepper and chilli powder. Top with the butter and slice of lime.
3. Fold the banana leaf up over the fish, forming a parcel and sealing it with toothpicks. Place the banana leaf parcel in a roasting tray. Bake for 15 minutes.
4. Meanwhile, mix together the green mango and yogurt in a bowl. Season with salt.
