Home-cooked: steamed cat fish with salted plum

  • fresh fish, I’m using cat fish
  • ginger, shredded
  • salted plum (sap shuin mui)
  • cili padi, sliced thinly
  • sesame seed oil 
  • salt

Pat some salt onto the fish. Place fish in a wide plate then sprinkle the shredded ginger and cili padi, also the salted plum and a tsp of it’s juice including a dash of sesame seed oil. Heat up a wok of water. Once boiling, place the plate of fish on the steaming tray in the wok and cover with hood. Let it steam for about 10 mins for a big fish and 8 mins for a small one. Serve it immediately once cooked, it taste better and fresh.
