Provided by Elena Silcock

Categories     Dinner, Fish Course, Main course

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 9

30g ginger , peeled and cut into matchsticks (use a julienne peeler if you have one)
1 whole large sea bass (about 800g), gutted and cleaned (ask your fishmonger to do this), or 4 fillets of sea bass
1 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp dark soy sauce
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp palm sugar
1 spring onion , sliced diagonally
½ small pack coriander , trimmed but still with most of the stalks on
½ red chilli , finely sliced diagonally

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Put half the ginger in the cavity of the fish, then lay it on foil. Pull the sides of the foil up around the fish to create a foil bowl, then add 1 tbsp water (this will steam the fish), seal and cook in the oven for 15-20 mins or a large bamboo steamer until the fish is flaking apart.
  • Transfer to a serving platter, leaving the juices in the foil. Heat the soy sauces, oil and palm sugar in a saucepan with 1 tbsp water until boiling and bubbling. Top the fish with the spring onion, chilli, most of the coriander and the rest of the ginger. Pour the hot liquid over the fish to 'cook' the aromatics on top. Scatter over any leftover coriander stalks to serve.

STEAMED SEA BASS, CANTONESE STYLE

Categories     Wine     Wok     Fish     Garlic     Ginger     Steam     Dinner     Seafood     Bass     White Wine     Summer     Winter     Party     Sugar Conscious     Pescatarian     Dairy Free     Peanut Free     Tree Nut Free     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1 1/2-lb. whole sea bass (or striped bass) with head and tail, cleaned, scaled, and gills removed
1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons white wine
3 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped (approx. 2 tablespoons)
4 tablespoons chopped scallions, including greens
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh ginger
2 teaspoons sugar
1/4 cup olive oil
3 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse the fish inside and out with 1/4 cup of wine.
  • 2. Select a round or oval platter that's large enough to hold the fish but will fit inside the top of a steaming utensil. This could be a traditional Chinese bamboo or metal steamer, or a Western-style clam steamer.
  • 3. Place the fish on the platter and set platter in the top of the steamer. Cover and steam over boiling water 10 to 15 minutes.
  • 4. Meanwhile, prepare the sauce base by combining the 2 tablespoons of wine, garlic, scallions, ginger, and sugar in a small bowl.
  • 5. Check fish for doneness. When cooked, the flesh will be white and pull easily from the bones. Remove the platter and pour off the liquid that has accumulated around the fish.
  • 6. Heat the oil in a wok or saucepan, and when it is hot, add the sauce base. Cook, stirring until the sauce boils.
  • 7. Pour soy sauce over the sea bass first, and then pour the boiled sauce over the fish. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • For the freshest fish, choose sea bass that is firm to the touch and has clear, bright eyes.
  • To remove the fishy smell from the fish, rub it with salt and then rinse it thoroughly before steaming.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your steamed sea bass dish. Some good options include bok choy, baby carrots, broccoli, and bell peppers.
  • To make the steaming process more efficient, cut the vegetables into uniform pieces so that they cook evenly.
  • Add some flavor to your steamed sea bass by using a flavorful sauce or marinade. Some good options include ginger-soy sauce, lemon-herb sauce, or spicy chili sauce.

Conclusion:

Chinese-style steamed sea bass with vegetables is a healthy and delicious dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With its delicate flavors and simple preparation, this dish is sure to please everyone at the table.
