Ingredients
- 400g MSC certified halibut fillet (or firm hake medallions)
- 500ml water, salted with 10g salt
- 3 mushrooms, sliced
- Goji berries, soaked

- 30ml water
- 100g steamed fish soy sauce
- 15g sugar
- Shredded spring onion

* NB. If you can't find spring onion oil, you can try with sesame or olive oil as in the video.
Method
- Slice the fish fillets into 45 degree pieces.
- Soak the sliced fish in the salted water for 10-15 minutes, then pat them dry.
- Place the mushroom slices, goji berries, shredded ginger and spring onion onto the fish.
- Pour the Chinese rice wine, steamed fish soy sauce and sugar into 30ml water and mix well.
- Place the fish on a plate and pour the rice wine mixture over it.

Chef Naledi's Tip: The ideal stay-in-date-night dish. Substitute rice wine with dry white wine and incorporate brown mushrooms for an added earthy flavour. |
