1. Make your paste! Using a teaspoon, peel the ginger before finely slicing it into matchsticks. Next, finely chop your garlic and add it, the ginger, dry fried shallots, soy bean paste, plum sauce, sesame oil and 2 tbsp of water into a food processor. Blend until you achieve a smooth paste. (Hint: if you find it difficult to peel your garlic, try dropping the cloves into a bowl water and then, on a chopping board, smashing them with the side of a knife! Make sure to mind your fingers).
2. Clean the fish and place on a large plate. Spoon the paste generously over the top and set the dish aside, ready for steaming.
