Ingredients
  • 1 fresh rainbow trout (about 1 lb/450g) /(Bass, snapper, monk fish, trout, cod, and halibut are good choices)

  • 2 tbsp. vegetable cooking oil

  • 3 garlic cloves , chopped
  • 2 green onions , chopped
  • 2 tbsp vegetable cooking oil
Instructions
  1. Clean the fish and then cut a small line to separate the thick meat. And add some shredded ginger (both on the surface and inside the stomach)

  2. In a small pan, add around 2 tablespoons of cooking oil and then fry garlic, spring onion for a while. Add chili bean sauce. Fry until aromatic. Then add 2 tablespoons of cooking wine and 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce. Mix well.

  3. Spread the sauce over the fish. And then steam over middle fire for 10 to 15 minutes.
