  2. Steep the saffron in 1 tablespoon warm water for 10 minutes.
  3. Remove the outer layers of the fennel and slice very thinly on a mandoline (2 mm / 1/16 in). Keep the fronds for garnish.
  4. Toss the fennel with the white wine, olive oil and saffron water.
  5. Make a bed of fennel and its juices in the center of each parchment square.
  6. Fold each sole fillet in half and lay it on the fennel.
  7. Squeeze over some lemon juice, season lightly and seal the parcels.
  8. Bake for 12 minutes at 200°C (400°F) until opaque. Sprinkle with dill and fennel fronds when you open them.
