Ingredients: 2 whole branzino, 12 oz each, gutted; 8 green Thai chilies; 1 cup Thai basil leaves; 2 stalks lemongrass, roughly chopped; 1 tbsp galangal, sliced; 3 tbsp coconut cream; 1 tbsp fish sauce; 1 tbsp lime juice; 2 tbsp neutral oil; 1 cup thin rice noodles, cooked and cooled; 8 oz bok choy, halved lengthwise; 2 tbsp coconut oil; 2 garlic cloves, minced; 1 tbsp soy sauce; lime wedges, Thai basil leaves for garnish

A whole branzino, gutted and scored, is sealed in parchment with a verdant Thai green curry paste made from green chilies, basil, and lemongrass. Inside the paper: steamed fish, charred bok choy, and tender rice noodles all perfumed together. The dramatic unfolding reveals an elegant, aromatic whole dish—restaurant theatre with serious technique.
