SESAME-CRUSTED FISH WITH BUTTER AND GINGER SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 200 degrees. Heat large, heavy skillet over medium heat. Put seeds on plate. Season fillets with salt and pepper and turn in seeds, patting to coat fillets as fully as possible with seeds. Add oil to skillet and when it shimmers add fillets.
• Brown fish on 1 side for a couple of minutes, then brown on other side for a minute or two. Remove skillet from heat, transfer fish to plate (even if not done) and place plate in oven.
• When skillet has cooled slightly, put over medium heat. Add butter, and when it melts add ginger. About 30 seconds later, add soy sauce and 1/4 cup water and stir to blend. Return fillets to skillet, along with accumulated juices.
• Turn heat to medium and cook fillets for about 1 to 3 minutes until desired doneness, turning 3 or 4 times. (If the pan dries out, add 2 or 3 tablespoons water.) Fish should be done when a thin-bladed knife meets little resistance at fillet's thickest point. Serve pan juices over fish.

SEA BASS WITH CITRUS AND SOY

Steps:

• Mix first 6 ingredients in 8x8x2-inch glass baking dish. Add fish; turn to coat. Chill 2 hours, turning fish occasionally.
• Place steamer rack in large skillet. Arrange fish on rack. Pour marinade into skillet under rack and bring to boil. Cover skillet and steam fish until just opaque in center, about 8 minutes. Transfer fish to plates. Remove steamer rack from skillet. Boil marinade until reduced enough to coat spoon, about 6 minutes; spoon over fish. Top with green onions.

MISO-GLAZED SEA BASS

Steps:

• Lay fish slices in a shallow glass or earthenware baking dish. Put white and red miso, sake, mirin, soy sauce, ginger and sugar in a small bowl and stir well.
• Dot half the miso mixture evenly over fish, then rub with fingers to lightly coat slices. Leave to marinate 10 to 15 minutes. Heat oven to 400 degrees.
• Beat egg yolks into remaining miso mixture. With a spoon, smear tops of fish slices with this egg-enriched mixture. Bake on top shelf of oven for 6 to 8 minutes, until fish is firm, then place pan under broiler to glaze. Broil 1 to 2 minutes until topping begins to brown. With a spatula, transfer fish to serving platter.
• Meanwhile, bring 4 cups well-salted water to a boil in a wide stainless steel skillet. Add mustard greens and cook until wilted, about 1 minute. Drain in colander, rinse briefly with cold water, then press out excess water with wooden spoon. Transfer to serving dish. Drizzle with sesame oil and garnish with thin slices of pickled ginger.

SEA BASS WITH SIZZLED GINGER, CHILLI & SPRING ONIONS

Steps:

• Season 6 sea bass fillets with salt and pepper, then slash the skin 3 times.
• Heat a heavy-based frying pan and add 1 tbsp sunflower oil.
• Once hot, fry the sea bass fillets, skin-side down, for 5 mins or until the skin is very crisp and golden. The fish will be almost cooked through.
• Turn over, cook for another 30 seconds - 1 minute, then transfer to a serving plate and keep warm. You'll need to fry the sea bass fillets in 2 batches.
• Heat 2 tbsp sunflower oil, then fry the large knob of peeled ginger, cut into matchsticks, 3 thinly sliced garlic cloves and 3 thinly shredded red chillies for about 2 mins until golden.
• Take off the heat and toss in the bunch of shredded spring onions. Splash the fish with 1 tbsp soy sauce and spoon over the contents of the pan.

SESAME SALT ROAST SEA BASS WITH GINGER SOY DRESSING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 200°C.
• Mix together the sesame seeds and salt. Season the cavity of the fish then make 3 diagonal slashes across each side of the bass so it cooks evenly.
• Transfer the fish to a large roasting tin and brush with a little oil. Scatter over the sesame salt and roast for 25-30 minutes until the fish is cooked and lightly golden.
• Meanwhile, splash a little sunflower oil into a small pan and cook the ginger, garlic and chile for 2 minutes, without browning. Add the soy sauce, vinegar and sesame oil and remove from the heat.
• When the fish is cooked, transfer to a large serving platter. Pour over the ginger dressing, then scatter over the salad onions and coriander leaves. Serve immediately with lime wedges for squeezing over.

STICKY SOY SEA BASS & GREENS TRAYBAKE

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Whisk the soy, syrup, wasabi and sesame seeds in a small bowl.
• Put all the greens in a shallow baking tray and toss with 4 tbsp water. Put in the oven and cook for 10 mins until all the water has evaporated. Meanwhile, pour boiling water from the kettle over the noodles in a heatproof bowl to cover, then leave to soak while you finish off the traybake.
• Once the greens are tender, drizzle over half the soy dressing with another 1 tbsp water and half the spring onions, and toss well. Place the sea bass on top, skin-side up, and pour over the reserved soy dressing. Sprinkle a pinch more sesame seeds over the skins. Cook for 5-6 mins until the fish is cooked through and flaking.
• Drain the rice noodles, then tip into one side of the tray and coat in some of the sauce. Drizzle over some extra soy, if you like, before scattering with the remaining spring onions to serve.
