Ingredients
THAI GINGER STEAMED FISH PARCELS
- 450g fish fillets
- 4-5 large squares of baking paper or foil (measuring about 30 x 30cm)
- 2½ tablespoons GF soy sauce
- 2½ tablespoons GF soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons GF mild sweet chilli sauce
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Pinch of chilli flakes (optional, adults)
- 1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
COCONUT RICE
- 1½ cups jasmine rice
- 1 cup coconut milk (shake well before opening
- 1¼ cups water
VEGGIES
- 2 baby bok choy
- 1 carrot
- 1 teaspoon GF sesame oil (optional)
- 100g mung bean sprouts
- ⅓ bag baby spinach leaves
- 40g GF cashew nut mix
TO SERVE
- 1 lime
- 2-3 tablespoons roughly chopped coriander leaves and stalks (optional, adults)
Steps
-
oven to 200°C. Line an oven tray with baking paper
-
Pat fish dry with paper towels, remove any remaining scales or bones and cut any larger fillets in half. Lay baking paper/foil squares on a flat surface. Divide fish into 4 serves and place in centre of each square. In a small bowl, combine all remaining Thai ginger steamed fish parcel ingredients.
-
Spoon half the sauce evenly over fish and set remainder aside. Wrap paper/foil into parcels by pulling 2 sides up and rolling together downwards towards fish. Twist each end of the parcel tightly, ensuring sauce does not leak out. Place onto prepared tray and set aside.
-
Combine all coconut rice ingredients in a medium pot with a pinch of salt and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to simmer for 15 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Trim 1cm ends off bok choy, rinse and thinly slice (keeping white and green parts separate); grate carrot; cut lime into wedges. Set all aside. When rice has 10 minutes remaining, bake fish for about 6 minutes, until just cooked through.
-
While fish cooks, heat sesame oil (if using) or a drizzle of oil in a large wok or fry-pan on high heat. Stir-fry white part of bok choy for 1-2 minutes, until tender. Remove from heat and add remaining bok choy, carrot, mung bean sprouts, spinach and cashew nut mix. Toss until wilted slightly and season.
-
TO SERVE, spoon ¾ cup coconut rice per person onto each plate with a fish parcel. Open parcels (be careful of hot steam), drizzle over remaining sauce and garnish with coriander (if using). Serve veggies on the side with a lime wedge to squeeze over fish just before eating
