About this recipe
A quick meal packed with great micronutrients and ready in minutes. A firm favourite of mine when I was on late shifts in Emergency. This recipe combines the great Asian flavours of soy, ginger and lemongrass with a fish that a lot of people are afraid to try. It is a fantastic source of long chain Omega 3 fatty acids that our western diets tend to lack and is essential for brain development. Try this recipe out after a busy day at work, you won’t be disappointed and it’s very quick!
