Can be prepared in 45 minutes or less. Makes use of the microwave oven. Ingredients:
1 pound white fish fillets |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
a 1 1/2-inch-long piece of fresh gingerroot, peeled and cut into julienne strips |
1 large scallion, cut into julienne strips |
1 teaspoon oriental sesame oil |
soy sauce to taste as an accompaniment |
white-wine vinegar or to taste as an accompaniment |
Directions:
1. Arrange the fillets in one layer in a microwave-safe baking dish, season them with salt and pepper, and cover the dish tightly with microwave-safe plastic wrap. Microwave the fish at high power (100%) for 3 minutes, or until it is opaque and just cooked through, remove the plastic wrap carefully, and pour off the liquid in the dish. Keep the fish warm, covered loosely. 2. In a microwave-safe glass measure combine the vegetable oil, the gingerroot, and scallion and microwave the mixture at high power (100%) for 1 minute. Add the sesame oil, let the mixture cool slightly, and pour it over fish. Serve the fish sprinkled with soy sauce and the vinegar. |
