Steamed Halibut With Fried Ginger

1. 1

   Set up a bamboo steamer over a pot of simmering water over medium heat.

2. 2

   Crush half of the ginger sticks with the flat side of a chef's knife and place on a plate small enough to fit inside steamer. Add garlic slices and scallions.

3. 3

   Score the skin on the halibut and season with salt and pepper. Place halibut, skin side up, on the plate and top with 2 teaspoons sesame oil and pinch of sugar.

4. 4

   Place plate in steamer and before covering, top halibut with soy sauce and sherry.

5. 5

   Cover steamer and cook until halibut is white throughout, about 10 minutes or so, depending on thickness. Remove plate carefully and set aside.

6. 6

   To fry ginger, in a small skillet, add remaining sesame oil and sunflower oil. Add remaining ginger sticks and fry until starting to brown.

7. 7

   To plate, serve with brown rice and steamed vegetables (I chose to use snap peas). Top halibut with ginger oil and browned ginger sticks.
