En papillote is a classic French method of cookery whereby the ingredients are steamed while enveloped in a pouch of parchment or foil. 

A fabulous way to cook fish, this process seals the moisture inside of the package and allows the released cooking juices to combine with the other components forming a delicious sauce during cooking.
