Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

4 plaice , haddock or other MSC-certified white fish fillets
2 pak choi , thickly sliced
4 spring onions , shredded
1 red chilli , thinly sliced
3cm ginger , cut into matchsticks
2 tbsp reduced-salt soy sauce
juice 1 lime
1 tsp sesame oil

Steps:

Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place each fillet in the centre of a large square of foil. Top with the pak choi, spring onions, chilli and ginger, then pull up the edges of the foil.
Mix together the soy sauce, lime juice and 1 tbsp of water then spoon a little over each fillet. Crimp the top of the foil to enclose the fish and make sure there are no gaps for the steam to escape.
Place the parcels on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 mins until the fish is cooked through (this will depend on the thickness of your fish). Open up the parcels and drizzle over a few drops of sesame oil. Serve with rice.

STEAMED BASS WITH PAK CHOI

A low fat and fragrantly flavoured fish dish, especially for two

Provided by Barney Desmazery

Categories Dinner, Lunch, Main course, Supper

Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

small piece of ginger , peeled and sliced
2 garlic cloves , finely sliced
3 spring onions , finely sliced
2 tbsp soy sauce
1 tbsp sesame oil
splash of sherry (optional)
2 x fillets sea bass
2 heads pak choi , quartered

Steps:

In a small bowl, mix all of the ingredients, except the fish and the pak choi, together to make a soy mix. Line one tier of a two-tiered bamboo steamer loosely with foil. Lay the fish, skin side up, on the foil and spoon over the soy mix. Place the fish over simmering water and throw the pak choi into the second tier and cover it with a lid. Alternatively, add the pak choi to the fish layer after 2 mins of cooking - the closer the tier is to the steam, the hotter it is.
Leave everything to steam for 6-8 mins until the pak choi has wilted and the fish is cooked. Divide the greens between two plates, then carefully lift out the fish. Lift the foil up and drizzle the tasty juices back over the fish.
