- Carbohydrate: 2.2g
Ingredients

- 2 tablespoons + ? cup canola oil
- 2-3 tablespoons of fresh ginger smoothly cut into thin and long strips.

- 8 roughly cut sprigs of fresh cilantro.
- ? teaspoon salt
- ? teaspoon sugar
- ? cup light soy sauce
- White pepper freshly grounded to taste
Method of Preparation
Step One
The first thing to do is prepare the whole fish. Start by getting rid of the scales. You don’t want to pick scales while eating lunch, trust me! You are going to hate it. Check the areas around the belly and head for scales and remove with a knife.
Step Two
Get rid of the fins too with an important kitchen tool known as shears. You might not be able to cut it with a knife because they are very tough. Also, be careful and remove gently without damaging the fish.
Step Three
Take a gander at the cavity, and you should see the spine. You may likewise observe a layer that you should pierce and cut, uncovering a blood line close to the bone. Run your finger or a spoon crosswise over it to clean it completely.
Step Four
Check for gills and cut gently with the kitchen shears.
Step Five
Clean and rinse properly. Shake properly to get rid of excess water in the fish. Then, it is steaming time!
Step Six
Put the fish on a hot plate for steaming. Steam without adding any seasoning- no salt or wine for about 9-10 minutes and then remove from the heat. Use a table knife to check through if the fish has been thoroughly cooked. How do you know this? Your fish is properly steamed when it is opaque all through and also, the bone should be a little translucent and not properly cooked.
Step Seven
The liquid acquired from steaming the fish, pour off and put part of the ginger, green part of the scallion and cilantro on the fish.
Step Eight
Pick a saucepan and heat about 2 teaspoons of canola oil and the remaining part of the ginger until it starts to sizzle. Add water, salt, sugar, white pepper and soy sauce and then heat until it boils.
Step Nine
While boiling, pour the rest of oil and the white scallions and stir properly until the liquid starts to boil.
Step Ten
Spread the whole mixture/sauce evenly and decoratively over the fish and serve hot.
