Ingredients
1
fish fillet
liquid
to cover
1-2
handfuls flavouring ingredients
Instructions
Place fish in a saucepan large enough to hold them in a single layer. Cover with liquid and add flavouring ingredients.
Place on a medium low heat and gently cook for 5-10 minutes. Keep the temperature so the liquid stays below a gentle simmer.
When the fish is cooked, the colour will turn opaque and the flesh will feel firm and should flake when you touch with your finger.
Drain fish and serve immediately or refrigerate in the liquid.
To reheat either gently warm in the liquid over a low-medium heat. Or drain and rub with oil before searing in a hot pan or on the BBQ.
