Steps:
- Discard tough leaves and woody base of the lemongrass. Thinly slice the tender portion of the lemongrass stem.
- In the base of a steamer, combine lemongrass, orange juice, lime juice and ginger; bring to a boil.
- Arrange stingray on steamer rack or basket, fit to pan, and cover tightly. Reduce the heat and steam for 5 minutes or just until the stingray "flakes" easily when tested with a fork. If rack will not hold all of the stingray at one time, steam in two batches.
- Using a wide slotted spatula, carefully transfer the stingray from the steamer rack to heatproof platter or individual serving plates; keep warm.
- Turn up the heat to high and cook juices uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes or until it becomes sauce, reduced by about half (it should have the consistency of syrup).
- Strain sauce over fish. Garnish with lime slices and chives.

Steps:
- 1. In a blender, combine the lemongrass with 3 cups water and puree until mostly smooth. (Lemongrass is very fibrous, so you will not get to a completely uniform consistency; that's okay.) Transfer the puree to a saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Remove from the heat, cover, and let the liquid infuse for 15 to 20 minutes. Strain the syrup into a bowl, pressing on the solids; discard the solids in the strainer. You should wind up with about 2 cups of strained "lemongrass tea"; be sure to measure out your final yield.
- 2. In a medium saucepan, combine the "lemongrass tea" with the same amount (by volume) of sugar. So, if you wind up with 2 cups tea, you will add 2 cups (400 grams) sugar. Stir the mixture over medium-high heat until all the sugar has dissolved and the syrup comes to a simmer. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.
- 3. Transfer the cooled syrup to a quart-size container and stir in the ginger juice and lime juice. Cover and refrigerate the sorbet base until completely cold, at least 3 hours.
- 4. Pour the chilled sorbet base into an ice cream maker and freeze according to the manufacturer's instructions. Place the container in which you refrigerated the sorbet base in the freezer so you can use it to store the finished sorbet. Churn the sorbet until it resembles Italian ice. Transfer the sorbet to the chilled storage container and freeze until hardened to your desired consistency. The sorbet will keep, frozen, for up to 7 days.
Tips:
- Choose the freshest stingray possible. Look for firm, plump flesh that is free of any blemishes or discoloration.
- Score the stingray skin before steaming. This will help the flavors from the marinade to penetrate the fish.
- Use a variety of herbs and citrus fruits in the marinade. This will give the stingray a complex and flavorful taste.
- Steam the stingray over high heat until it is cooked through. The fish should be opaque and flaky when it is done.
- Serve the stingray immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Steamed stingray is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this underrated fish. The tender flesh of the stingray is perfectly complemented by the bright and citrusy flavors of the marinade. This dish is sure to impress your friends and family, and it is also a great way to get your daily dose of omega-3 fatty acids.
