Also, season with salt and pepper. Now take a sheet of aluminum foil and lay an equal size piece of parchment paper (baking paper) on top. We use a banana leaf as if gives a little extra flavor – but it is optional. Now put one layer of each of the tomato, onion, and chili, bell pepper first, then place the fish on top. Carefully then build another layer of tomato, onion, chili, and bell pepper on the top. Now carefully wrap the fish up with the foil into a parcel, being careful to crimp and seal all the edges while keeping the layers intact. Now you are ready to place in the instant pot and cook for 15 minutes on high pressure with 10 minutes natural release. If you have a thicker fish like cod, or thick fish pieces may be cook a little longer, and if you have thin fish fillets then you will cook for less time. Fish fillets around 7-8 minutes.

Another great side dish idea is making a chickpea side with mustard seeds and sweet potato.

The answer is to use apple cider vinegar with a little Worcester sauce – and the Fishy smell is gone., If your fish is fresh it will not have a fishy smell. However sometimes seafood from the supermarket is not quite as fresh as you would like – so how do you get rid of the fishy smell. Also, your local supermarkets may label fish as “Fresh” or “wild caught” it is frozen first and then thawed. First, wash the fish fillets under cold running tap water until the slimy feeling is gone. Take a glass bowl, fill it up with water. Now add 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar (can also use cooking vinegar) and 1 teaspoon of Worcester sauce – place the fish fillets in the water and stir around for a few minutes – take them out and rinse again under cold water and continue with your fish dish.
