Fish is one of my favourite sources
of proteins. If you enjoy fish like I do, try out these different sauces
with your fish. I'm sure you won't feel bored even if you eat fish every
day.
The fish can be shallow or deep fried, baked or even steamed and then
have the sauce poured over it.
If you steam fish, choose one that weighs
about 500g / 1lb. Flesh of bigger fish tend to be rough and that of smaller
fish is too soft. If you are serving it as part of a Chinese dinner with
3 or 4 other dishes, this will be enough for 4-6 people.
Before steaming,
remember to cut 2 or 3 slits on both sides of the fish body. This will
ensure that the inside will be cooked. Always use high fire (gas) when
steaming fish. Hotplates are not recommended.
A 500 g/1 lb fish will need
only 10 minutes. Don't overcook or it will lose its subtle taste. Fresh
fish is especially tasty if steamed.
