Ingredients
- 1 English cucumber
- 1 cod fillet
- 1-inch ginger, sliced
- 2 scallions
- 1 red chili
- 3 tbsp hot oil
- 3 tbsp light soy sauce
- Water for steaming
Instructions
- Slice the cucumber in an accordion style using chopsticks as a guide to prevent cutting all the way through. Leave both ends longer to create a “head” and “tail” for a snake shape. Attach eyes using rice grains and a tongue using a thin strip of red chili for a fun touch.
- Lay the white parts of the scallions on a steaming tray, place the cod on top, and add sliced ginger over the fish.
- Arrange the cucumber around the fish, cover, and steam for 10-12 minutes.
- Transfer the fish and cucumber to a plate and top the fish with julienned scallions and red chili. – Drizzle hot oil over the top, followed by soy sauce.
