Method
- To make the Bonito Master Stock place all ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook for 10 mins, take off the heat and set aside for 15 mins to infuse, before straining.
- To prepare the barramundi, using scissors, trim off all fins and trim back the tail. With a sharp knife make 3 scores on each side of the fillets. Place in a large fry pan on a high heat with oil and season both sides of the fish with salt and pepper. Once the pan is hot place the barramundi in and cook on high heat for 1-2 mins, or until golden brown. Turn to the other side and cook for a further minute. Place in the oven and cook for 12-15 mins or until cooked through. Take out and finish with a squeeze of lemon.
- Cut the bok choy into quarters and pod the soy beans, place the bok choy and soy beans in a saucepan of boiling salted water and cook for 2 mins. Strain off and toss through the olive oil.
- Place the bok choy on a serving plate with the barramundi on top. Finely slice the shallots and scatter over the top of the fish. Heat the Master stock and pour over the barramundi.
- Heat the sesame oil in a pan on high heat until it starts to smoke. Then carefully spoon over the top of the fish just before serving.
