To make the sauce, heat the pineapple juice, sugar, red wine vinegar, star anise and tomato
juice, Simmer for 1-2 minutes, then thicken with the cornflour and water mixture, whisking
continuously. Pass through a fine sieve into a small bowl to cool.
In a separate large bowl mix together the pak choi, bean sprouts, mushrooms and spring onions,
then add the ginger and lemon grass. Toss all the ingredients together.
Put a square of grease proof paper on top of a square of foil and fold into a triangle. Open up
and place half the vegetable mix in the centre, pour half the sweet and sour sauce over the
vegetables and place the sea bass on top. Sprinkle with a few sesame seeds. Close the triangle over
the mixture and, starting at the top, fold the right corner and crumple the edges together to form
an airtight triangular bag. Repeat to make another bag.
Place on a baking sheet and cook in a preheated oven, 200ºC / 400ºF / Gas Mark 6, for 10
minutes, until the foil bags puff with steam, To serve, place on individual plates and snip open at
the table.
