1 Line a heatproof dinner plate with a large sheet of baking paper. Place fish on paper in a single layer and sprinkle with ginger, chilli and spring onions. Fold up paper to enclose.

2 Add enough water to a large wok to fill to 5cm and bring to the boil. Place plate in a large bamboo steamer and cover with lid. Reduce heat to a gentle boil and place steamer in wok over water. Steam for 6-7 minutes until fish is just cooked and flakes easily.
