The Secret to Steamed Fish

 
The best way to cook fresh fish is steaming. Steamed fish is healthy and retains the beautiful flavours of fresh fish. If the fish is not fresh it will have a fishy taste. This is only to be used for fresh fish.

Ingredients:

1 fish
1 small piece of ginger
1 stalk of green onion
3 tbs of soya sauce
1 tbs of sesame oil
8 tbs of vegetable oil

Cooking Instructions:

1) To ensure even cooking, cut a slit down the middle so the heat can enter the thickest part of the fish.

 2) Slice up green onion and put it aside. This will be used after it is cooked.

 3) Place thinly sliced ginger in and on the fish.

 4) When the water is boiling, place the fish on a plate and steam for 10 min.

 5) In a small pot heat up some oil. Then pour the hot oil over the fish and the green onion. Add soya sauce and a bit of sesame oil.
