Simple Steamed Fish

I couldn't find a recipe to steam our fish tonight that really appealed to me, so I came up with this.... Cook time will depend on the thickness of your fish fillets-ours were quite small. Show more

Ready In: 7 mins

Ingredients

  • 1  teaspoon  sesame oil
  • 1  teaspoon brown sugar
  • 1  teaspoon  rice wine vinegar

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, mix all the ingredients (apart from the fish and green onions) together.
  2. Smear a little of the dressing around a dinner plate. Arrange the fillets thickest sides out. Drizzle the remaining dressing over the top and spread it around.
  3. Cover with cling film, punch a few holes in it then microwave on high for 2 minutes. Check and microwave a further 30 seconds at a time until the fish is just done. Allow to stand a couple of minutes then serve, pouring the juices over and garnishing with the sliced green onions.
