Tablespoon of crushed garlic.
Tablespoon of ginger.
1 cup of soya sauce.
1 spring onion (chopped).
Sesame oil.

Directions:

Cut each side of the fish in a criss-cross pattern, add salt and pepper and sesame oil.

Mix soya sauce, garlic and ginger.

Heat wok on a high flame, add sesame oil and heat until oil starts to smoke.

Place fish in wok and turn once skin has gone crispy and brown.

Pour in soya, ginger and garlic mix and cook for another five minutes, turning once.

Add spring onion and sesame seeds just before serving.

Enjoy with a crisp riesling.
