Steamed lemon tilapia with teriyaki sauce

Ingredients

·         3 tbsp soy sauce

·         75ml /2½ fl oz mirin (we used Cooks' Ingredients mirin from Waitrose, see tip)

·         2 tbsp sugar

·         1 lemon, juice ½, ½ sliced

·         250g basmati rice, rinsed in cold water

·         4x140g/5oz pieces tilapia fillet

·         3cm/1¼ inch piece ginger, shredded

·         1 red chilli, sliced, deseeded if you like

·         small bunch spring onions, sliced

Method

1.    Pour the soy, mirin and sugar in a small saucepan with the lemon juice. Bring to the boil and simmer for 5 mins until slightly syrupy. Remove and set aside.

2.    Put the rice in a large saucepan and cover with water, about 450ml. Bring to the boil, then turn down to a simmer. Cook for about 5 mins – the rice should have absorbed about 3⁄4 of the water. Place the fish fillets on top.

3.    Sprinkle each with ginger, chilli and a slice of lemon. Season, cover and cook for about 5 mins, until the fish and rice are cooked through. Serve with a drizzle of the sauce and sprinkled with the spring onions.
