Ingredients
- 4 x 150g firm white fish fillets such as hoki
- 3cm-piece fresh ginger, peeled, cut in thin matchsticks
- 1 long red chilli, deseeded, thinly sliced
- 3 spring onions, trimmed, cut in 4cm lengths, thinly sliced lengthwise
- 2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 1 ½ tablespoons salt-reduced soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
- 1 clove garlic, crushed
- 4 cups cooked jasmine rice, to serve

Instructions
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.
