Steamed Fish Fillet with sauce



Ingredients A

500g Fish Head or Fish fillets
2 ginger slices
2 tbsp Shaoxing wine
1 tbsp fried shallot oil

Ingredients B

25g bird's eye chillies
30g ginger
30g garlic cloves

Sauce (mix well)
2 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp Monosodium glutamate (optional)
3 tbsp Thai Chilli sauce
4 tbsp fish sauce
1 tbsp rice vinegar
6 tbsp water

Method
  1. Cook some water in a wok, once boiled, add in Shaoxing wine, ginger slices and Fish head/fillet, cook at low heat until cooked. Dish up, spoon in fried shallot oil
  2. Finely chop the bird's eye chillies, ginger and garlic clove, mix it with sauce mixture, then pour over the cooked fish fillet. Serve at once
The above was the original recipe but i didn't follow exactly as few ingredients i don't have and also too spicy for kids. Ingredients like Chilli sauce, Bird's eye chillies and MSG. The fish sauce i use normal soya sauce instead.

For the second part, i prefer to saute and lighlty brown the ginger and garlic clove til fragrant before i mix with the sauce.
