Stir-fried Sea Bass

First post in a while! We made this stir fry the other week, it’s super easy and really delicious. Recipe taken from the Wagmama ‘Ways with Noodles’ recipe book by Hugh Arnold.

Ingredients

  • 2 nests of dried ramen egg noodles
  • 200g spinach
  • 3cm piece of root ginger, grated
  • 1 tbsp. dark soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves peeled, finely chopped
  • juice of 1/4 lemon
  • 1 tsp. fish sauce
  • 1 tsp. rice vinegar
  • 4 spring onions, chopped
  • 2 tsp. seasoned cornflour (with salt and pepper)
  • 200g sea bass fillets cut into bite-sized pieces (roughly 2 fillets)
  • 2 tsp. toasted sesame oil
  • 1 tsp. sesame seed, briefly toasted in a hot dry frying pan

Method

  1. Cook the noodles based on pack instructions. Drain, leave to cool and run under cold water
  2. Blanch spinach in boiling salted water, until wilted. drain, refresh under cold water and squeeze out excess liquid. Fluff up and set aside.
  3. Mix ginger, soy sauce, garlic, lemon juice, fish sauce and rice vinegar in a bowl.
  4. Heat oil in wok or large frying pan. Fry spring onions for 1 minute, until just start to brown.
  5. In a separate dry frying pan toast the sesame seeds until just browned, around 1 minute. Set aside for later.
  6. Dust seabass with cornflour in a bowl. Add to the pan with the spring onion, stir fry until fish is almost cooked (~3mins). Add spinach, noodles, ginger mixture and cook until everything is combined and the sauce is bubbling.
  7. Remove from the heat and pour over the sesame oil and scatter over the sesame seeds to serve

This is a brilliant quick dinner which is filling, tasty and refreshing – we have made this multiple times and would absolutely recommend!
