Steamed Golden Pomfret with fermented soybeans

I love this version, this is different from just putting the fermented soybeans on top of the fish and steam it. This method fry the ingredients to bring out the fragance before steaming with the fish. Is definately a keeper!

Ingredients
Golden pomfret
Salt and pepper
1 tbsp salted fermented soybeans
3 garlic cloves (minced)
1/2 red onion (cubes)
2 inch ginger (thin slices)
1 tomato (sliced)
1 tbsp cooking wine
Spring onion
Cut red chilli

Methods
1) Pat dry the pomfret and marinate with salt and pepper.

2) Heat the pan with little oil and sautee garlic till fragrant, add onions and fry for 1-2 mins. Add ginger slices and continue to fry until fragrant. Push them to one side of the pan and add in the fermented soybeans, mash them lightly with the spatula. Fry till fragrant and combine everything inside the pan.

3) Top the pomfret with those that you have just fried and place sliced tomato at the side. Sprinkle with a tbsp of cooking wine and steam until fish is cooked.

4) Sprinkle with spring onions and cut chilli, cover the lid and off the flame for a minute.

5) Serve.
