Steamed Thai Fish

So much flavour and aroma is packed into this healthy dish of steamed Thai fish, with zesty citrus notes, garlic, chilli and coriander all taking a starring role. The tender trout fillets will carry the seasoning beautifully and by cooking the fish with the steam mode of a Panasonic combi microwave, you will preserve all the wholesome nutritional benefits as well.
