STEAMED FISH WITH BLACK BEAN SAUCE RECIPE - FOOD.COM
I guess this might be called my 'signature' dish and my husband was astonished that I hadn't posted it here yet. The original recipe came from my dog-eared copy of More Long-Life Chinese Cooking From Madam Wong but I've changed it so much that now it's my own. The black beans can be found in oriental markets, they keep forever in a clean glass jar with a tight fitting lid. I make this with fish fillets, usually Chilean sea bass but any firm, white fillet will work. You can also use a whole fish, just make 3, deep, diagonal gashes on each side of the fish. Cooking time is approximate, depending on the type and size fish you use. My sea bass fillet are pretty thick so I steam for 10 minutes total on them. Cook less for thinner fillets. Serve this fish with rice to soak up the delicious juice and I also, ALWAYS serve it with my Baby Bok Choy with Oyster Sauce. My husband loves to spoon some of the sauce from that onto his fish.

Steps:
- If using a whole fish, make 3 deep diagonal slashes on each side of the fish.
- Chop the black beans; place half of the black beans, scallions, and ginger on a heat-proof plate that can be used in the steamer; place the fish on top.
- Sprinkle fish with the sugar, then pour the sherry or rice wine, soy sauce and oil on top; cover the fish with remaining black beans, scallions and ginger.
- For steaming I use my electric wok and place 2 chopsticks next to each other in one direction and 2 more next to each other in the opposite direction, creating a platform.
- Place the plate of fish on top of the steamer, over briskly boiling water, cover and steam 10 minutes for thick fillets, 20 minutes for whole fish and less than 10 minutes for thinner fillets.
- fish is finished when fillets flake easily or when a chopstick will easily pierce the gill area on whole fish.
- Remove to a platter and garnish with cilantro.
- Serve over steamed jasmine rice and make sure to spoon the black bean sauce over the whole thing; YUM.

STEAMED FISH FILLETS IN BLACK BEAN SAUCE RECIPE | GOOD FOOD
Steaming is a technique that, like stir-frying, is used by Chinese all over the world. But, unlike stir-frying - with its flamboyant action, sizzle and excitement - steaming is subdued. Ingredients are gently caressed by an enveloping, even heat. Strangely, steamed food has not been widely embraced by Western chefs other than for special dishes and puddings.

Steps:
- For the garnish: soak the the spring onion and capsicum in iced water until ready to use.
- For the sauce: place the black beans in a mixing bowl, rinse in a small quantity of water, then drain. Using the back of a spoon, lightly squash the beans (avoid mashing them into a paste).
- Combine all the ingredients with the beans, mixing thoroughly and set aside.
- For the fish: place the fillets on a plate, sprinkle with salt and pepper and spoon the sauce over each fillet, spreading evenly.
Insert a steaming rack in your wok (a round cake rack or similar will do). Add boiling water to just below the base of the rack. Place the plate on the rack, cover with wok lid and steam gently for 8-10 minutes.
- Transfer the fillets to a serving plate.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a small pot until it smokes, then carefully pour the hot oil over the fillets
- Garnish and serve.

- Here is southern Chinese food in its simplest and most divine form. I love salted black beans but have always had trouble Stir frying delicate fish fillets as they tend to crumble. I now have to worry no more: having learnt the tricks from Chinese masters I realise how easy it is. When the fish is put in a marinade of egg white and cornflour there has to be sufficient cornflour to hold the fish together when it is cooked. The fish also has to be allowed to sit in this marinade for at least two hrs. The fish also needs to be precooked very briefly in water. This has to be done tenderly just before it is put in its sauce. For those who like fish I can't recommend a better way to prepare it. It is light delicate and full of flavour. MethodCut each fish fillet in half lengthways. Then cut it crossways into 5cm wide strips and put them in a wide bowl. Add in the marinade: first add in the salt rice wine and black pepper. Stir gently to mix. Beat the egg white lightly (not to a froth) and add in which as well as the cornflour and sesame oil. Mix. Cover with clingfilm and chill for two hrs or possibly longer. Now make the sauce. Put the cornflour in a c.. Slowly fold in the stock. Add in the rice wine salt sesame oil and black pepper. Crumble in the chilli. Set aside. Rinse the black beans and chop them coarsely. Peel the garlic and ginger and chop them finely. Cut the spring onions crossways into very fine rounds along their entire length including the green section. Just before eating put about 2cm water into a large fryingpan and bring it to the boil. Then turn the heat down to a bare simmer. Put the fish into the water separating the pcs very gently and spreading them around in the pan. Even before the water comes to a simmer again the fish pcs will turn nearly white. Remove them gently with a slotted spoon and put them on a plate. Throw away the water and wipe the frying pan dry. Put two Tbsp. of the oil in and set it over a mediumhigh heat. When it is warm add in the garlic ginger and black beans. Stir once or possibly twice or possibly till the garlic turns golden brown. Take the pan off the heat stir the sauce and pour which in. Put the pan back on a mediumlow heat and stir gently till the sauce thickens. Add in the fish spread it out in the pan and spoon the sauce over it turning the pcs carefully just once. Slide the contents of the pan on to a hot serving plate. Scatter the spring onions over the top. Quickly put the remaining oil into a small pan and heat it. Pour the warm oil over the onions to wilt them slightly and to make the fish glisten .
