Method

Preheat the oven to 190ºC/375ºF/gas 5. Slice the root ginger into matchsticks. Thinly slice the lemon. Cut four 23cm (9in) square pieces of greaseproof paper; place a few lemon slices in the centre of each sheet. Top with a salmon fillet then scatter on some ginger.
Fold the greaseproof paper over the salmon. Pinch the edges together to make a parcel. Place on a large baking sheet. Make 4 parcels in all. Bake for 20-25 mins until the salmon is just cooked.
Meanwhile, finely shred the mangetout and chop the carrots into thin strips.
Heat the sesame oil in a wok and stir-fry the mangetout, carrots and beansprouts for 3-4 mins. Put the salmon on serving plates and pile the stir-fried veg on top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
Heat the soy sauce and honey in the wok then pour over the salmon and vegetables.
