12 oz fish filets (flounder, tilapia, catfish, pollock, cod, or similar fish)Arrange the fish in a single layer in a dish with deep sides to capture the flavorsome juices formed during cooking. Spread the bean sauce, and distribute the scallions and ginger artfully. Steam for 15 to 25 minutes depending on the thickness of the fillets. Serve with steamed rice, topping each serving with the pan liquor and the aromatic vegetables. Serves four, as part of a family-style meal.
1/4 c (60 ml) ground (brown) bean sauce
4 to 6 green onions, cut in half lengthwise
1 T (10 g) ginger, peeled and thinly sliced

Fish Steamed in Ground Bean Sauce, Scallions, and Ginger, Chinese style
First prepared in Seattle, 1968, from a recipe book published by a Victoria, BC grocery. Steaming is a traditional method in Chinese cuisine. Its many virtues include fuel economy, protection from drying and over-cooking, speed, and conserving nutrients. Any Asian grocery stocks (in jars or cans) ground (brown) bean sauce. It is salty and savory but not spicy.
