Steamed Mackerel with Three Cabbages

Steaming brings out the full aroma from the fish and cabbages in this healthy Asian style dish

Step 1
Peel and cut the kohlrabi cabbage into thin strips. Rinse the roman cabbage, carefully break it into florets and boil them for a few minutes. Rinse the pak choi and cut the end off to remove the leaves. Cut into
medium size strips.

Step 2
Clean the fish and season the flesh with salt and pepper.

Step 3
Mix the white wine, soy sauce, sugar and lemon juice in a large bowl. Add the cabbages and mix well.

Step 4
Portion the cabbage mix equally onto 4 x A3 sheets of SAGA Cooking Paper. Lay the fish on top, sprinkle over some basil leaves and make a SAGA package.

Step 5
Steam in a bamboo (preferably) or other steamer for about 20 minutes.

Step 6
Serve with the packages still closed to maintain the aroma.

Step 7
Try this dish with other small fish such as sea bass or pike-perch.
