Ginger Steamed Trout Food

OVEN-STEAMED TROUT WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Rinse trout and pat dry, inside and out. Brush inside and out with oil. Lay trout, spread open and skin side down, in a single layer in two 10x15 inch baking pans. Drizzle sherry evenly over trout; sprinkle with ginger. Cover pans tightly.
• Bake at 400* F for 8-10 minutes, or until fish is opaque in thickest part (flake gently with a fork to test) but still moist-looking.
• Transfer to a platter or plates, using two wide spatulas to carefully lift each trout (if they start to break up, cut fillets apart and transfer each fillet seperately).
• Drizzle 2 tbsp soy sauce evenly over trout. Sprinkle evenly with green onions and cilantro. Serve with additional soy sauce to taste.

STEAMED FISH WITH GINGER

Steps:

• Set a large bamboo or metal steamer basket over a skillet of simmering water over medium heat.
• Crush the ginger slices with the flat side of a knife. Place the garlic and half each of the ginger and scallions on a plate that will fit inside the steamer. Score the fish skin a few times with a knife; season with salt and pepper. Place the fish skin-side up on the plate, drizzle with 2 teaspoons sesame oil and sprinkle with the sugar. Put the plate in the steamer. Mix the soy sauce and rice wine and pour over the fish.
• Cover and steam the fish until just cooked through, 6 to 12 minutes, depending on the thickness. Carefully remove the hot plate. Add the snow peas to the steamer, season with salt, cover and cook until bright green, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Transfer the fish to a platter, spoon the juices on top and sprinkle with the remaining scallions. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil and the peanut oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the remaining ginger and cook until it begins to brown. Pour the hot oil over the fish.

THAI-STYLE STEAMED FISH

Steps:

• Nestle the fish fillets side by side on a large square of foil and scatter the ginger, garlic, chilli and lime zest over them. Drizzle the lime juice on top and then scatter the pieces of pak choi around and on top of the fish. Pour the soy sauce over the pak choi and loosely seal the foil to make a package, making sure you leave space at the top for the steam to circulate as the fish cooks.
• Steam for 15 minutes. (If you haven't got a steamer, put the parcel on a heatproof plate over a pan of gently simmering water, cover with a lid and steam.)

STEAMED FISH WITH GINGER & SPRING ONION

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Cut a large rectangle of foil, big enough to make a large envelope. Place the pak choi on the foil, followed by the fish, then the ginger and garlic. Pour over the soy sauce and rice wine, then season.
• Fold over foil and seal the 3 edges, then put on a baking sheet. Cook for 20 mins, open the parcel and scatter over the spring onions and coriander. Serve with brown rice and squeezed lime juice.
