A quintessential Cantonese dish that highlights the freshness of the fish. Steamed to perfection with aromatic ginger and scallions, then drizzled with a hot soy sauce and oil mixture.
🧂 Ingrédients
- 1 lb Whole fish (e.g., sea bass, snapper, tilapia)(cleaned and scaled)
- 2 inch piece Ginger(cut into thin slivers)
- 4 stalks Scallions (green onions)(cut into 3-inch lengths, then julienned)

- 1 tsp Sesame oil
- 3 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 tbsp Shaoxing wine (optional)

Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Make a few diagonal slits on both sides of the fish. Rub the fish with salt and Shaoxing wine (if using).

Place the fish on a heatproof plate that fits inside your steamer. Stuff some ginger slivers and scallion pieces inside the cavity and place the rest on top of the fish.

Prepare your steamer. Bring water to a rolling boil in a wok or pot. Once boiling, carefully place the plate with the fish into the steamer. Cover and steam for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
