Ingredients
- 1.25 lb Sea bass fillets
- 3 tbsp Ginger
- 6 Scallions
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Rice wine
- 2 tbsp Cilantro
Steps
- Bring a pot with a steamer basket to a rolling boil.
- Lay the fillets on a heatproof plate and drizzle with the rice wine — this tames any fishiness.
- Steam 8 minutes, until the flesh is just opaque and flakes gently.
- While the fish steams, julienne the ginger and slice the scallions, keeping whites and greens separate.
- Heat the sesame oil until shimmering and sizzle the ginger and scallion whites for 30 seconds.
- Pour the hot, fragrant oil directly over the steamed fish — you should hear it crackle.
- Spoon the soy sauce around the plate.
- Top with scallion greens and cilantro; serve immediately.
