Method

  1. In a small bowl, mix all of the ingredients, except the fish and the pak choi, together to make a soy mix. Line one tier of a two-tiered bamboo steamer loosely with foil. Lay the fish, skin side up, on the foil and spoon over the soy mix. Place the fish over simmering water and throw the pak choi into the second tier and cover it with a lid. Alternatively, add the pak choi to the fish layer after 2 mins of cooking - the closer the tier is to the steam, the hotter it is.
  2. Leave everything to steam for 6-8 mins until the pak choi has wilted and the fish is cooked. Divide the greens between two plates, then carefully lift out the fish. Lift the foil up and drizzle the tasty juices back over the fish.

    I used salmon and put a bit of sliced chilli in as well and it was really lovely - very healthy tasting and satisfying. I'll definitely make it again and again.

    I add sliced chilli and cook in foil parcels in the oven for 20-25mins: delicious (and low in fat!)

    Nice recipe - I added the juice of a lime and put it in the oven (in foil) at 180 for about 20 minutes along with a few other veg. I think the pak choi needs a little water on it for it to cook thoroughly. or maybe just leave it in longer. I also replaced chillies with sweet chili sauce and a few chili flakes!
