1. Fish (jus caught or buy)

2.Sliced Ginger (a must to break the smell)

3.Sliced Chilli

4. light soy sauce

The Fast way is cut the fish in 1/2 after de-scale use the tail part put 3-4 pcs sliced ginger n chilli on top n below the fish n add 1-2 teaspoon of light soy sauce, pinch some salt n sprinkle on it and its ready to steam for 10 -15min.

I've been seeing alot of chef steaming fish before during my part time job in the hotel previously. In order to have a fastest way to cook the fish, they will put a porcelain spoon in between the sliced fish...

Actually you can get Lee Kum Kee Sauce for steam fish. Quite nice eating also.

It aso depend on the fire aso bro. tats y i usually start wif big fire to make the water boil then turn to small fire to start steam the fish.

bigger fish usually have harder meat unlike those small one which is much softer and "yu xin" is not so strong too ..
