SIAKAP STEAM CHINESE STYLE/ SIAKAP KUKUS ALA CINA

Add caption
This is a prominent Chinese dish and a MUST in any dinner or lunch functions. This steam fish is seasoned with fresh ginger and soya sauce. Simple and easy to prepare. Some of the favourite fish used for this recipe are white promfret, siakap, kerapu or seabass. I bought this siakap at RM11.00 and I’m sure you know how much Chinese restaurants can charge for steamed fish. Rather than spending in excess on this one dish, why not prepare it at home instead? It’s really simple.




INGREDIENTS AND PREPARATIONS
1 live fish (about 1.5 lb or less) / 1 ekor ikan
2 inches ginger (peeled and cut into thin strips)/ 2" halia potong memanjang

  2. Itulah sebenarnya modal nak buat tak berapa sangat tapi kalau dah dine kat restuarant maunya 30-40 hengi se sehidang. Rasanya puas buat sendiri. Tambah anak ramai macam saya, parah kalu makan kat luar.
