This Ginger Steamed Fish is a simple yet flavorful dish. The white fish is delicately steamed with aromatic ginger and spring onions, creating a fragrant and tender meal. The sauce, a blend of shaoxing wine, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine vinegar, and fish sauce, adds a savory depth. Served with jasmine rice and vibrant broccolini, this dish is a delightful combination of textures and flavors.
