Recipe ingredients
- 2 whole snappers, about 1 1/2 lb. (675 g), gutted and scaled
- 1/2 tsp. (2 mL) salt
- 1/2 tsp. (2 mL) ground pepper
- 2 Tbsp. (30 mL) thinly sliced fresh ginger
- 1 Tbsp. (15 mL) sesame oil
- 1 Tbsp. (15 mL) soya sauce*
- 3 scallions, cut into segments
- 1 stalk celery, cut into thin strips
- 1/2 red pepper, cut into thin strips
Preparation
Wash fish inside and out with cold water and pat dry with paper towels. Salt and pepper and put ginger in the cavity.
Combine sesame oil and soya sauce. Brush over fish.
Put a grill in the bottom of a big wok. Add water to a depth of 7 cm. Water must not touch grill.
Lay fish on grill and cut 3 slits in thickest part of fish.
Cover and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook 15-20 minutes. Shut off heat, spread vegetables over the fish and cook covered another 3 minutes. Arrange fish on a serving platter and keep warm.
Suggestion
Whole snappers can be replaced with fillets. For crispier fish, heat 1/2 cup (125 mL) peanut oil. When it begins to smoke, pour it over vegetables and fish.* We recommend Selection and Irresistibles products.
