  • For the Jasmine Rice, place rice and water into a saucepan and cook according to package directions.
  • Uncover and fluff the rice using a plastic or wooden paddle/spoon. Keep covered until ready to serve.
  • For the Steamed Snapper, bring a wok of water to the boil.
  • Combine white soy sauce, water and sugar into a bowl and mix until sugar has dissolved. Set aside.
  • Score the snapper, place on a plate then into a large bamboo steamer. Cover and steam for 9-12 minutes.
  • Remove the fish from the steamer and carefully place onto a serving plate. In the meantime, place 2 tablespoons vegetable oil and half of the ginger into a small saucepan over medium-high heat. When the ginger starts to sizzle, add remaining vegetable oil and white parts of the spring onion.
  • When the onion starts to sizzle vigorously, pour in the white soy sauce mixture and bring to a simmer.
  • Remove from the heat and pour hot dressing over the steamed snapper.
  • Garnish with green parts of coriander leaves, spring onion and chilli.
  • For the Chinese Broccoli, place oil into a large frypan over medium-high heat.
  • Add garlic and sauté for 15 seconds, until garlic starts to lightly brown.
  • Add Chinese broccoli and coat evenly in the oil and garlic, until the leaves and stems turn a vibrant green. Season with salt and transfer to a serving bowl.
  • Serve alongside the snapper and rice.
