Sticky Chinese-Style Sole With Sesame Pak Choi & Spring Onions

Add your basmati rice and 300ml [390ml] [600ml] cold water to a pot with a lid and bring to the boil over a high heat

Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 10-12 min or until all the water has been absorbed and the rice is cooked

Once cooked, remove from the heat and keep covered until serving

While the rice is cooking, wash, then trim the base from your pak choi, then separate the individual leaves and discard the base

Trim your spring onion[s], then cut each spring onion into thirds

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Combine your gluten free soy sauce, hoisin sauce and honey to a bowl and give everything a good mix – this is your sticky sauce

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add your sole fillet[s] and cook for an initial 3-4 min on one side

Meanwhile, heat a separate large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick, with a matching lid) over medium heat with a drizzle of vegetable oil

Once hot, add the pak choi leaves, spring onion thirds and a small pinch of salt and cook, covered, for 3-4 min or until both have softened

Once softened, add the chopped garlic and your toasted sesame oil and cook for 1 min further – this is your sesame pak choi & spring onions

After 3-4 min turn the sole fillet[s] and add the sticky sauce to the pan

Cook for a further 3-4 min or until the sole is cooked through and the sauce has thickened to a sticky consistency – this is your sticky Chinese-style sole

Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily

Add your black sesame seeds to the basmati rice and fluff with a fork – this is your sesame rice
