INGREDIENTS:
  • 4 x 150gm skin-on fillets barramundi
  • 150gm brown rice
  • 600gm wombok (about ¼ of a wombok), cut into 4 wedges
  • 1 bunch broccolini
  • 80gm oyster sauce
METHOD:
  • In a small saucepan, bring the rice and water to the boil, stir, cover and cook over a low heat for 15 - 20 minutes.
  • Place the barramundi fillets skin side up on a piece of baking paper and lower gently into a steamer basket. Add the wombok wedges, cover and steam for 5 minutes.
  • Add the broccolini to the steamer and steam for another 3 minutes.
  • Divide the wombok wedges between four plates and twist them into a ‘nest’, then place a heaped spoonful of rice in the centre of each.
  • Lift the barramundi out of the steamer on the paper and carefully transfer onto the rice. Divide the broccolini between the four plates.
  • Stir 50ml (or just under ¼ cup) of the steamer water (or plain boiling water) into the oyster sauce to dilute it and pour over and around the fish.
RECIPE NOTES:
  • Wombok is Chinese cabbage, and if not available, can be substituted with Asian leafy greens, kale or green cabbage.
  • If Barramundi is not available, substitute it with another firm-fleshed white fish.
  • If looking to make this dish gluten free, check your oyster sauce label carefully.
