Ingredients

  • 1 fresh whole rock fish, about 1.44 lbs (.656 kg)
  • 3 stalks green onions, julienned
  • 1- inch fresh ginger, peeled and julienned
  • Kosher salt

Sauce

  • 3 tbsp mirin
  • 2 tbsp less sodium soy sauce or 1 tbsp regular soy sauce
  • ½ tsp sesame oil

Instructions

  • Clean and rinse the fish. Pat the fish dry with paper towels and then season with salt.
  • Place the seasoned fish on a glass dish that would fit in your steamer. Spread the green onions and ginger over the fish.
  • Place the dish in the steamer and steam the fish until fish flakes easily with a fork, about 20 to 25 minutes. Gently transfer the cooked fish (minus the accumulated juices) on a platter.
  • In a small microwavable bowl, whisk together the mirin, soy sauce and sesame oil. Microwave on high heat for 20 second. Pour the sauce over the steamed fish.
  • Garnished the steamed fish with julienned green onions and ginger. Serve with rice on the side.

Notes

Note: If there’s no available microwave, combine the mirin, soy sauce and sesame oil in a small sauce pan. Bring to a boil and then pour over the fish.
