For home cooks, cooking fish for the first time can be intimidating, but this recipe is a no-fail way to enliven your favorite white-fish with ease. Steaming fish is an excellent way to imbue it with intense flavors, with minimal hassle and great health benefits. Steaming retains more nutrients than other cooking methods, whilst keeping calories considerably lower than frying. This recipe centres around a parcel full of aromatic herbs like lemongrass, and Summer flavors of lime and ginger. Pick local, fresh fish for best results.
