HEALTHY SPICY STEAMED BABY BOK CHOY

Steps:

• Place the bok choy in a steamer basket and place the basket over (not in) simmering water. Steam until the base of the bok choy is just tender when pierced with the tip of a knife, about 6 minutes. Meanwhile, whisk together the chives, soy sauce, lime juice, lime zest and sugar in a small bowl. Transfer the bok choy to a platter and drizzle with the soy mixture. Drizzle with the spicy sesame oil and serve.

STEAMED BOK CHOY

Steps:

• In a medium skillet, bring water to a boil. Add bok choy. Cover; simmer over medium-low heat until tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Uncover; cook over high heat until pan is dry, 2 to 4 minutes. Add vegetable oil and garlic clove; cook, tossing often, until garlic is fragrant, 2 minutes. Season with coarse salt and ground pepper.

STEAMED PAK CHOI

Steps:

• Cut 3 heads of pak choi in half lengthways. Steam for 3 mins or until just wilted. Dress with some sliced red chilli if you like, or if you're cooking the twice cooked sticky duck recipe, dress with the simmered stock.

SESAME PAK CHOI

Steps:

• Cut a thick slice from the pak choi root to separate the leaves. Rinse and drain.
• Heat the groundnut oil in a large wok over a medium heat and add 1 tbsp sesame oil, the garlic, chilli, fish sauce (if using) and pak choi. Toss until coated and clamp a pan lid over them. Reduce the heat and cook for 3-6 minutes, tossing occasionally, just until the leaves have wilted (the stalks should be tender-crisp).
• Add the rest of the sesame oil and salt. Toss the leaves and serve immediately.

STEAMED FISH & PAK CHOI PARCELS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Place each fillet in the centre of a large square of foil. Top with the pak choi, spring onions, chilli and ginger, then pull up the edges of the foil.
• Mix together the soy sauce, lime juice and 1 tbsp of water then spoon a little over each fillet. Crimp the top of the foil to enclose the fish and make sure there are no gaps for the steam to escape.
• Place the parcels on a baking sheet and bake for 10-15 mins until the fish is cooked through (this will depend on the thickness of your fish). Open up the parcels and drizzle over a few drops of sesame oil. Serve with rice.
