Directions:
1
Fill a large pot 1/2 full with water and place a bamboo steamer with lid on top of the pot
2
Bring to a rolling boil
3
Scrub the scales off of the fish and rinse with cold water

Place the fish onto a small metal plate, belly side down

Place into the steamer and cover

Cook until the fish is no longer opaque and flakes easily, 10 to 12 minutes
7
Try not to take the lid off the pot until it is done steaming; this will ensure a fully-cooked and tender fish

While the fish is steaming, combine the vegetable oil, green onions, and ginger in a small saucepan
