Basa fillets

[Bumperstump Cummerbund]

Okay, need some ideas for Basa. Usually I wrap them individually in alfoil with butter and lemon, but Mum is very sensitive to the metallic taste so I need another recipe!

How about wrap them in banana leaves and steam them instead?

[Ambersky]

I do them Portuguese style... pour a couple of cans crushed Toms, or a bottle of passata in to a frypan with a lid, lay slices of lemon over the top, put the Basa on top then more slices of lemon, (no stirring) put the lid on and put over a gentle heat till the fish is steamed. Serve the fish and spoon some of the lemony tomato over the top.

You could bake them wrapped in baking paper instead of foil, if you can't find banana leaves.

Or sprinkle with any kind of spice mix (morroccan, cajan, etc) or just s+p, and either pan-fry in a little butter, or microwave.

I use bass to make fish cakes - cook, mash, add egg, cheese, powdered chicken stock and breadcrumbs - off the top of my head it goes like that anyway yummmmmm.

I like the banana leaf idea too

Wrap them in baking paper and then foil perhaps?

Can do steamed fish asian style with most white fleshed fish. Just need thinly julienned fresh ginger and spring onion, also some chopped coriander and chili if you like. Dress with soy sauce mixed with some sugar/water, and hot oil.

1, steam fish till cooked through, put on plate
2, put the ginger and spring onion on top of fish
3, heat some oil (maybe a bit over a tablespoons per fillet, i just eyeball it) in a pan till smoking hot, pour on top of ginger/spring onion on fish so it all sizzles a bit, but doesn't cook the herbs
4, in same pan throw in the soy so it sizzles a little (maybe 2~3 tablespoons per fillet?), add sugar (maybe 1 tsp per fillet) and water to taste, and pour over fish
5, throw on coriander/chilli and enjoy

One of the easiest ways to cook fish, and IMHO one of the tastiest! You should be able to find a more precise recipe online somewhere :P
