Method

  1. 1

    Finely chop the fresh red and green chillies and mix with the crushed garlic and grated fresh ginger.

  2. 2

    Lay the sea bass fillets on a heatproof plate and spoon the chopped chilli mixture evenly over the top.

  3. 3

    Set the plate in a steamer basket over a pan of simmering water, cover and steam for 10 minutes, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily.

  4. 4

    Heat the groundnut oil in a small pan until just smoking, then pour it over the fish so it sizzles.

  5. 5

    Drizzle with the light soy sauce.

  6. 6

    Scatter with the spring onions and serve with steamed rice.
