Fish stir-fries well and, because of the strong flavours in this recipe, you don't have to shell out for a more exotic species.
SERVES 2
300g snapper fillet, skinned and cubed
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1 tbsp freshly grated ginger
2 tbsp salt-reduced soy sauce
1 tbsp olive oil
1 bunch broccolini, cut into 5cm pieces
2 yellow zucchini, halved lengthways and sliced
6 shallots, cut into 5cm pieces
150g shiitake mushrooms, sliced
Combine fish, garlic, ginger and 1 tbsp soy sauce in a bowl. Set aside. Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a wok on high. Stir-fry broccolini for 3 minutes, add zucchini and stir-fry another 2 minutes. Remove from the wok.
Heat 1 tsp of remaining oil and stir-fry shallots and mushrooms for 2 minutes until onions soften. Remove from the wok.
Heat remaining oil and stir-fry fish for 2 minutes until browned. Return vegetables to wok, add remaining soy sauce and toss to coat, then serve immediately.
