     Title: St. Lawrence Market Banana Leaf Roasted Grouper
Categories: Seafood, Citrus, Herbs
     Yield: 4 Servings

     2 lb (1kg) grouper fillets;
          - skinned, all bones removed
     1 pk Banana leaves
     1    Lemon; sliced as thin as
          - possible
     1    Lime; sliced as thin as
          - possible
     8    Allspice berries
     8    Sprigs cilantro
     8    Sprigs of thyme
     4    Sprigs of dill
   1/4 c  (60 ml) olive oil
          Coarse salt & fresh ground
          - black pepper

 Heat oven to 450ºF/230ºC. Place a wire rack on a sheet
 pan.

 Slice the grouper it to four 8 oz (250 g) portions. If
 you need to use a couple of smaller pieces to make up
 the weight, that's fine.

 Cut each banana leaf in a 12" x 12" (30 x 30 cm) square
 and place it flat. In the center of the banana leaf
 place a few slices of lemon and lime. To this add 2
 allspice berries, 2 sprigs of cilantro, 2 sprigs of
 thyme and 1 sprig of dill. Place the grouper on top and
 season with olive oil, salt and pepper. Fold the bottom
 and top of the banana leaf together and pinch one end.

 Tie with a scrap piece of banana leaf or string. From
 the open end push the grouper tight against the tied
 end. Pinch and tie the remaining end closed. Repeat with
 remaining portions. Transfer to the prepared sheet pan
 and roast on the middle rack of the oven until firm to
 the touch, about 10-12 minutes. Remove from the heat,
 rest for 3-4 minutes and serve.
