Provided by Ching-He Huang

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 sea bass , head on, gutted
2cm piece ginger , thinly sliced
2 tbsp Shaohsing rice wine
cooked jasmine rice , to serve
1 tbsp groundnut oil
2 garlic cloves
2 tbsp grated ginger
2 tbsp fermented black beans , rinsed and crushed with the back of a spoon (or use 100g black bean sauce instead)
1 tbsp Shaohsing rice wine
3 tbsp toasted sesame oil
3 tbsp light soy sauce
2 spring onions , shredded
1 small handful coriander , leaves picked

Steps:

  • Wash the fish in cold running water. Pat dry with kitchen paper, then slash 3-4 slits into the skin on both sides. Season all over with salt and ground white pepper. Place ginger slices in the slits of the fish and inside the cavity.
  • Place the fish on a plate that fits inside your wok. In your wok place a pudding bowl upside down and pour water to come halfway up. Place the wok on the heat and bring the water to a boil.
  • Pour the rice wine over the fish, put the plate onto the upside-down bowl and place the lid of the wok on top. Steam on high heat for 8-9 mins, then leave to rest.
  • While the fish is cooking, make the black bean sauce. Add the groundnut oil to a hot wok or frying pan. When it starts to smoke, add the garlic, ginger and beans (or use 100g ready-made black bean sauce) and stir-fry for a few secs. Add the rice wine, sesame oil and light soy sauce, then bring to the bubble.
  • Carefully remove the fish (you can keep it on the plate that you cooked it on). Garnish with the spring onions and coriander, then drizzle over the black bean sauce and serve with rice.

STEAMED FISH WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE



Steamed Fish With Black Bean Sauce image

I guess this might be called my 'signature' dish and my husband was astonished that I hadn't posted it here yet. The original recipe came from my dog-eared copy of More Long-Life Chinese Cooking From Madam Wong but I've changed it so much that now it's my own. The black beans can be found in oriental markets, they keep forever in a clean glass jar with a tight fitting lid. I make this with fish fillets, usually Chilean sea bass but any firm, white fillet will work. You can also use a whole fish, just make 3, deep, diagonal gashes on each side of the fish. Cooking time is approximate, depending on the type and size fish you use. My sea bass fillet are pretty thick so I steam for 10 minutes total on them. Cook less for thinner fillets. Serve this fish with rice to soak up the delicious juice and I also, ALWAYS serve it with my Baby Bok Choy with Oyster Sauce. My husband loves to spoon some of the sauce from that onto his fish.

Time 30m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 thick firm white fish fillets or 1 1/2 lbs red snapper
2 tablespoons fermented black beans
2 green onions, shredded into 1 1/2 inch long pieces
4 slices ginger, shredded
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons sherry wine or 2 tablespoons rice wine
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon peanut oil
cilantro (to garnish)

Steps:

  • If using a whole fish, make 3 deep diagonal slashes on each side of the fish.
  • Chop the black beans; place half of the black beans, scallions, and ginger on a heat-proof plate that can be used in the steamer; place the fish on top.
  • Sprinkle fish with the sugar, then pour the sherry or rice wine, soy sauce and oil on top; cover the fish with remaining black beans, scallions and ginger.
  • For steaming I use my electric wok and place 2 chopsticks next to each other in one direction and 2 more next to each other in the opposite direction, creating a platform.
  • Place the plate of fish on top of the steamer, over briskly boiling water, cover and steam 10 minutes for thick fillets, 20 minutes for whole fish and less than 10 minutes for thinner fillets.
  • fish is finished when fillets flake easily or when a chopstick will easily pierce the gill area on whole fish.
  • Remove to a platter and garnish with cilantro.
  • Serve over steamed jasmine rice and make sure to spoon the black bean sauce over the whole thing; YUM.

Sea Bass in Black Bean Sauce image

Do not be alarmed by this list of ingredients. This dish is much simpler to prepare than it may seem.

Provided by Jason Epstein

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 sea bass, about 1 1/2 to 2 pounds each, filleted, skin left on
8 ounces fresh Hong Kong-style egg noodles (available in Asian markets)
2 tablespoons light soy sauce, or more to taste
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil, or more to taste
2 tablespoons fermented black beans with garlic (available in jars in Asian markets)
3 tablespoons peanut oil, or more as needed
2 cups fresh mung bean sprouts
1/2 red bell pepper, finely diced
1/2 green bell pepper, finely diced
4 medium fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, caps thinly sliced
4 green onions, white part and some green, trimmed, thinly sliced
1/2 tablespoon peeled, thinly sliced fresh ginger root
1 cup chicken broth, or more as needed
1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot

Steps:

  • Gently cut 2 X's through the skin of each fillet without cutting the meat, to keep them from curling. Set aside.
  • Soak noodles in warm water for 1 minute, drain and toss with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon sesame oil, or more to taste. The flavor should be noticeable but not overpowering. Set aside.
  • Combine the black beans with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 tablespoon sesame oil. In a wok heat 1 tablespoon of peanut oil until smoking. Add the bean sprouts, bell peppers, mushrooms, green onions and ginger. Stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the bean-sauce mixture and stir-fry 1 minute. Add 1 cup chicken broth and stir-fry 1 minute more. Mix the cornstarch or arrowroot with a bit of water until smooth and add to the sauce. Heat to boiling, stirring gently, until the sauce is clear and thickened. If too thick, thin with more chicken stock. Set aside and keep warm.
  • In a nonstick 10-inch skillet heat 1 tablespoon peanut oil until almost smoking, add the noodles and flatten into a pancake. Fry gently until crisp, turn over, adding more oil if needed, and brown other side. Place on a platter and keep warm.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon peanut oil in a nonstick 10-inch skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the bass fillets, skin side down, and move the fillets gently to prevent sticking. Reduce heat to medium and cook until the skin is crisp, about 2 minutes. Turn over and cook until a sharp knife meets almost no resistance, 1 to 2 minutes, and fish is browned slightly. Do not overcook!
  • To serve: Spoon the sauce over the noodles and top with the fillets.

STEAMED SOLE WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE



Steamed Sole with Black Bean Sauce image

Provided by Grace Young

Categories     Bean     Fish     Steam     Spring     Healthy

Yield Serves 4 to 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

One 1 1/4 pound sole, cleaned and gutted, with head and tail intact
1/2 plus 1/8 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons Chinese dried black beans (dul see)
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon sugar
3/4 sesame oil
3/4 teaspoon Shao Hsing rice cooking wine
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon finely shredded ginger
1 scallion, finely shredded
1 tablespoon thin soy sauce

Steps:

  • Thoroughly rinse the fish in cold water and pat dry. Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon salt over the outside and into the cavity of the fish.
  • Rinse the black beans in several changes of cold water and drain them. In a small bowl, mash beans, garlic, and sugar with the back of a wooden spoon. Stir in sesame oil, rice wine, pepper, and 1/8 teaspoon salt.
  • Place fish in a 9-inch shallow heatproof bowl and spread black beans over fish on both sides and in cavity.
  • Bring water to a boil over high heat in a covered steamer large enough to fit the dish without touching the sides of the steamer. Carefully place dish into steamer, cover, and steam 5 minutes. Turn off heat and let stand, covered, 4 minutes. Test fish for doneness by poling the thickest part with a fork or chopstick; flesh should flake. If not, resteam for 1 to 2 minutes or until fish just flakes. Carefully remove the dish from the steamer and pour off any liquid in the dish.
  • In a small skillet, heat oil until hot but not smoking over high heat. Sprinkle ginger and scallion over fish. The oil will make a crackling sound as it hits the fish. Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • To ensure the sea bass is cooked evenly, use a steamer basket that fits snugly inside your pot. If you don't have a steamer basket, you can create one by placing a colander or heatproof bowl inside the pot and covering it with a lid.
  • If you don't have black bean sauce, you can make your own by combining black beans, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and garlic in a food processor or blender until smooth.
  • To add more flavor to the dish, you can marinate the sea bass in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and ginger for 30 minutes before steaming.
  • Be careful not to overcook the sea bass, as it will become dry and tough. The fish is cooked when it flakes easily with a fork.
  • Serve the steamed sea bass with steamed rice and your favorite vegetables.

Conclusion:

Steamed sea bass with black bean sauce is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The fish is cooked in a flavorful sauce that is made with black beans, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and garlic. The dish is also very easy to make, and it can be on the table in less than 30 minutes. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy seafood meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
