Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds halibut, cut into 4 pieces
- 3 spring onions, cut into 3 inch lengths
- 2 fresh mushrooms, sliced
- 6 leaves napa cabbage, sliced into 4 inch pieces
- 2 slices fresh ginger root, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1/4 cup low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/8 cup water
- crushed red pepper flakes to taste
- fresh coriander sprigs, for garnish
Instructions
- Arrange 1/2 of the spring onions on the bottom of the steaming bowl (it is important to steam in a container in order to retain the steam and juices around the fish). Place 1/2 of the mushrooms and Napa cabbage sections on top of the onions. Place fish on top of the vegetables. Sprinkle ginger, garlic, and red pepper flakes over fish. Top with the remaining spring onions, mushrooms, and napa cabbage. Drizzle soy sauce and water over everything.
- Place steam bowl in a steamer over 1 inch of boiling water, and cover. Steam for 15 to 20 minutes, or until fish flakes easily. Garnish with coriander, if desired.
