Steamed fish
This is Chinese-style cooking, and is very healthy and surprisingly flavorful. I usually use salmon or flounder. It flakes easily off the bone, so whole fish works fine.
fish of your choice, whole or fillet
1/4 cup red cooking wine
splash of broth or stock (optional)
1 medium piece ginger, julienned
1/2 cup scallions, cut into 2-inch strips
minced garlic
1/8 c. soy sauce
Place fish directly into a steaming basket or in a heat-resistant bowl on top of a steaming rack (I prefer this way so the fish gets more liquid flavor). Add a small amount of water to the pan (1/2 c. or so).
Pour wine, broth and soy sauce on top of the fish.
Add minced garlic and arrange ginger and scallions on top to cover the fish.
Steam for about 8-10 minutes or until fish flakes easily.
Serve with rice.
