When I saw Anncoo's post on 'Steamed prawns with vermicelli' some time ago, I told myself that I must make something like this. So, I tweaked it a bit and managed to come up with this ....... 'Steamed Fish fillet with Rice Vermicelli'.
Marinate the fish fillet with the seasoning, keep aside for a while. Then arrange them on a bed of soaked rice vermicelli, steam under rapidly boiling water for about 8 mins. and then dinner is ready!
A nutritious and healthy one dish meal enough for 3 servings ........ serve with some chopped chilly and Enjoy!
Ingredients

- Wash and slice up the fish fillet, mix with the seasoning and keep aside for an hour or so.
- Soak the rice vermicelli in water for about 1/2 an hr or till soft, rinse again in water. Drain and place on a plate for steaming.
- Meanwhile, prepare the steamer with water and bring it to the boil.
- Mix the salt, oyster and fish sauce in the cup of water and pour it over the rice vermicelli.
- Arrange the marinated fish fillet on the rice vermicelli.

You are welcome, Jeannie!
Elin, yes, just nice for the two of you!
I also want to cook this way for the balance fish from the 5kg fish that i bought ealier, so yummy.
ReplyDeleteThis is a very light, healthy yet very flavourful steamed dish. I am sure these vermicelli would taste really great after absorbing all the juice from the fish.
ReplyDeleteYes it does, Angie.
ReplyDeleteGosh, Sonia, 5 kg fish, going to feed a multitiude? Do try it, it's delicious.
Looks good! The noodles must have soaked up all the deliciousness!
ReplyDeleteI tried this last night, for dinner, with red snapper, the only one I could find. Two small pathetic snapper costed me AUD11.67. Can you imagine??? But it was yummy and thanks! I added a lot more ginger though because we're both simply ginger freak!
ReplyDelete3 hungry tummies
ReplyDeleteYes, all the goodness have been absorbed by the vermicelli.

Glad you liked it. Dollar for dollar, think the price is ok. Prices of fish have gone up quite a fair bit here too. But if we were to convert, then of course it's expensive.
This reminds me of Hong Kong...they like to steam clams topped with fried garlic over glass noodles...yum yum.
