My hubby's 'second job' - fishing. No, it is his hobby after he was 'banned' from playing badminton by his cardiologist after surviving a heart attack while playing the game. This is his catch of the day - a 1 kg Garoupa. Very fresh fish that requires little 'dressing', so steaming it with a simple soy sauce mix and ginger with lots of spring onion/coriander should be awesome.
Ingredients
Ingredients
1 Garoupa fish [600 gm] - scaled and cleaned
1" piece ginger - shredded finely
1 stalk spring onions - cut fine shreds
1 stalk coriander - cut 1" length
1-2 tsp fried chopped garlic
some oil [heated till hot] - optional
Sauce Ingredients
Sauce Ingredients
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp sugar
5 tbsp water
1/2 tsp sesame oil
a dash of pepper
- Steam fish over boiling water for 15 - 20 minutes or until fish is cooked.
- Bring sauce ingredients to a boil in a saucepan.
- Remove fish from steamer, drain away the stock if any. Quickly pour sauce over steamed fish.
- Garnish with shredded ginger, spring onions, coriander leaves and garlic crisps.
- Lastly pour some hot oil over fish [optional] before serving immediately.
Note:
Definitely taste better with the extra hot oil but healthwise it is better to omit it after all this fish is very fresh.

Hi taRugiE, glad you find it good.
I have eaten many steamed fishes in Hong Kong and just love this dish, and I have steamed many fishes and couldn't get the right taste. This recipe is brilliant. It takes no time to prepare the ingredients and you don't have to fear the disaster.
