How to Prepare

Steaming (recommended): Steam over boiling water for 10–12 minutes until cooked through, then drizzle with hot sesame oil and top with fresh ginger, scallions, and a splash of premium soy sauce — the classic Cantonese preparation that showcases the fish’s natural sweetness at its absolute finest.
Pan-frying: Pat dry, season lightly with salt, and pan-fry in oil over medium-high heat for 3–4 minutes per side until golden and crispy on the outside while remaining tender and juicy inside.
Grilling: Score the fish, marinate in soy sauce, ginger, and sesame oil, and grill over medium heat for 4–5 minutes per side until lightly charred and cooked through.
Braising: Braise in a light soy, ginger, and Shaoxing wine sauce for a comforting, deeply flavourful Cantonese-style dish.
