Instructions


0 Quickly rinse the sea bass then pat dry. Season with salt on one side. 
1 Transfer the sea bass to a heat-proof plate. Layer on the white part of the scallions and sliced ginger on top of the fish. 
2 With the water already boiling in the steamer, place the sea bass into the steamer. Steam for 8 to 10 minutes, depending on the size of your fish. For a 1 pound, 1 inch thick sea bass, 8 minutes should be sufficient. 
3 Carefully remove the fish from the steamer. Pour out half of the liquid that has accumulated on the plate. Then arrange the green part of the scallions and cilantro on top of the sea bass. Season with seafood soy sauce to taste. 
4 In a small pan, heat neutral oil over medium heat and once smoking hot, carefully pour the oil on top of the aromatics. 
5 Serve with rice and enjoy!
