• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
• Finely chop garlic.
• In a medium saucepan, heat a drizzle of olive
oil over medium heat. Cook half the garlic until
fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Add the water (for the rice)
and a generous pinch of salt and bring to the boil.
• Add jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce
heat to low.
• Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat
and keep covered until rice is tender and water is
absorbed, 10 minutes.
TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so
don’t peek!
• Meanwhile, trim and halve green beans.
• Roughly chop Asian greens.
• Thinly slice long chilli (if using).
• When rice has 15 minutes remaining, discard any
liquid from barramundi packaging.
• Season fish on both sides with salt and pepper
and top with chilli.
• Wrap fish in baking paper skin-side down, then in
foil, folding the seams to seal.
• Place on an oven tray. Bake until cooked through,
12-14 minutes.
• While fish is cooking, in a large frying pan, heat a
drizzle of olive oil over high heat.
• Cook green beans, until tender, 4-5 minutes.
• Reduce heat to medium, add garlic and Asian
greens and cook, until wilted and fragrant,
1 minute.
• Transfer to a bowl, season to taste and cover to
keep warm.
• In a small microwave-safe bowl, combine
ginger lemongrass paste, the soy sauce, vinegar,
brown sugar, water (for the sauce) and a drizzle of
olive oil.
• Microwave until fragrant and heated through,
30 seconds. Season with pepper.
• Divide fragrant rice and garlic greens between bowls.
Top with Cantonese-style steamed barramundi.
• Spoon over ginger lemongrass sauce.
• Tear over coriander to serve. Enjoy!
