Steamed Halibut Cheeks With Chopped Salted Chilies
May 14, 2010
350 g Halibut Cheeks Method Marinate the halibut cheeks with wine and set aside. Place the smashed ginger and scallion in the middle of a deep heatproof plate that will fit into the steamer. Heat the wok over a high heat until smoke rises, then add the oil and swirl around. Toss in the black beans and chopped ginger and stir-fry briefly until fragrant. Drain the wine and juices from the halibut cheeks, and then lay it over the ginger and scallion. Cover the cheeks evenly with the chilies, and then scatter with the beans and ginger from the wok. Put the plate in the steamer and steam over a high heat until just cooked, about 6 to 8 minutes. Serve on the steaming plate with a scattering of sliced scallion.
I made this Steamed Halibut Cheeks With Chopped Salted Chilies especially for my daughter. She doesn’t like steamed fish at all because she dislikes the “fishy” smell, even fish fresh from the tank! Since Halibut is in season now and there are plenty of halibut cheeks available, I decided to have a go at making this to entice her to add some fish to her diet. The cheeks have a delicate white meat with a pure mild flavor and its not fishy at all. So, guess what, she loves it!

Dumplings
October 29, 2008
I'm actually laughing at myself! What have I got into? Trying to make dumplings?? Well, I have seen my late grandmother make them a long time ago. I can remember the ingredients but not the measurements! So, it took me about two hours to come up with the perfect recipes, and I'm glad I did! It was an instant hit! They were all gone, all gobbled up! Make the dough first, add about 480 to 500g of all-purpose flour with 300ml of water. Knead the dough and let it rest. You should be able to make 40 dumplings with the dough. Meanwhile, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Click here for the dumpling wrappers video.
