Once again I'm invited by MediaCorp Channel 8 Cooking Variety Show "Just Cook It" to contribute a fish recipe (1 minute video stint)! Below are the pictures I've taken at the shooting studio. This is a simple and yet nutritious steamed fish infused with herbal broth! Threadfin is very expensive over here. I've bought this slab of fillet for about S$24! But this fish fillet really goes well with the herbal broth. The broth is not too overwhelming, which you can still taste the natural sweetness of the fish. Besides using threadfin fillet, you can try seabass, codfish or even pomfret if you like.
