Steamed Wild Alaska Salmon, Chinese-Style

Serves 2

Ingredients:

300ml (½ pt) vegetable stock

2 tbsp soy sauce

1 garlic clove, crushed

1 tsp grated fresh root ginger

½ tsp Chinese five-spice powder

4 spring onions, finely sliced

1 small red pepper, deseeded and thinly sliced

2 celery sticks, thinly sliced

Handful of beansprouts

2 heads pak choi, roughly shredded

2 x 100-150g (4-6oz) fillets wild Alaska salmon

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Method:

Pour the vegetable stock into a wok or sauté pan. Add the soy sauce, garlic, ginger, Chinese five-spice powder and all the vegetables. Bring up to simmering point
Lay the salmon fillets on top of the vegetables and put a lid on top, or cover with a sheet of foil. Cook for 6 to eight minutes, or until the fish is done. The flesh will be opaque and should flake easily when tested with a fork
Taste the broth, seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, or add a little more soy sauce. Ladle into warm bowls and serve at once
Cook's tip: To make the dish more substantial, serve with rice or egg noodles.
