Description

Ingredients

• One fresh fish (I use Bass) around 500g to 750g
• 3 spring onion whites or 1 small section of shallots
• 1 small section of carrots, finely shredded
• 1 inch root ginger
• 1 small bunch of coriander, stem only and cut into small sections
• 1 dashes white pepper powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 teaspoons soy sauce
• 2 teaspoons water
• 2 teaspoons sesame oil
• 1 tablespoon cooking oil
• 1 chili pepper for decorating (optional)

Directions

• Wash your fresh fish and cut some scratches on the surface. Spread some salt and white pepper power on the surface evenly.
• Then cut around 1 inch root ginger into slices and lay on the surface and inner side of the fish to marinade for 15 minutes.
• At the same time, cut carrots into thin slices and coriander stem, spring onion white parts into small sections. Place the carrots slices, half of the spring onions white and half of the coriander above and below the fish.
• Bring some water in a pot to a boiling and then steam the fish with high fire around 7 minutes. Covered please! Turn off the fire and leave the pot aside for another 5~ 8 minutes.
• During the process, mix soy sauce with sesame oil and water in a bowl. And prepare another pan to heat up around 1 tablespoon of cooking oil.
• Then transfer the plate out of the pot and pour the water within the plate off. Lay the carrots slices firstly and then transfer the fish into your serving plate. Discard the spring onion shreds and coriander.
• Then lay the left spring onion shreds and coriander sections on the top. Pour the sauce evenly on the plate.
• And then pour the hot oil on the surface, and decorate with chopped chili peppers.
