1
Preheat the oven to 180C350C/gas mark 4.
2
Prepare the spring onion and courgettes by slicing them as thinly and evenly as possible.
3
Make sure the black olives are pitted and cut them in half.
4
Cut four pieces of greaseproof paper or foil, each one measuring about 30 x 30cm.
5
Divide the courgettes into four equal piles on the pieces of paper or foil and season with salt and pepper.
6
Place three sole fillets on each of the vegetable mounds, folding each fillet into three to save them from overcooking.
7
Sprinkle over the spring onion and the black olives and scatter some chopped fresh basil.
8
Drizzle olive oil over each pile.
9
Fold the paper or foil over to create four parcels and, before you close them, divide the butter evenly between each parcel and pour a quarter of the white wine into each one.
10
Seal the parcels tightly by folding over the edges and crimping them together.
11
Leave a little space inside for the steam.
12
Place a large, heavy-based frying pan or roasting tin over a high heat and pop the parcels into it.
13
When the parcels start to expand, remove them from the heat and place in the oven for 7 minutes.
14
Remove and serve at once.
