Directions
1 Preheat oven to 220c/425f/Gas 7. Half fill a large pan with boiling water and place a bamboo steamer on top. Place a drop of soy sauce in a mini food processor with a few mint leaves, lime juice, dash of white wine and sesame oil, season, then blitz to combine.
2 Remove the skin from one fish fillet and coat flesh in mixture. Place the fish on a plate and sit in the steamer, cover with lid and steam for 4-5 minutes, or until cooked.
3 Thinly slice half the cucumber and arrange on a plate. Mix 2 chopped garlic cloves, chopped chilli, 1 tbsp chopped coriander, ½ tbsp chopped mint and a drop of white wine vinegar then drizzle over the cucumber. Stir the steamed fish in the middle and serve.
4 For the Tzatziki Soup: Cut the remaining cucumber in half lengthways and remove the seeds then thinly slice. Place in a bowl, add 1 tbsp chopped mint, 1 tbsp chopped coriander, yoghurt, dash of milk and 1 crushed garlic clove and mix. Serve in a bowl. 5 For the Spinach Soup: Heat the butter in a large pan, add 2 chopped garlic cloves and the shallots and cook gently until softened. Add 600ml/1 pint of boiling water, bring to the boil then crumble in stock cube and half the spinach.
6 Cook for a minute to wilt down the spinach then use a hand-held blender to blitz until smooth. Add a pinch of grated nutmeg and season, stir in 1 tbsp double cream and serve in bowls.
7 Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof frying pan, add the remaining fish fillet and cook for 1 minute on each side then transfer the pan to the oven and continue cooking for a further 5-8 minutes, or until cooked through.
8 Heat the white wine vinegar in a pan, add the remaining spinach and wilt down quickly. Drain the spinach and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible.
9 Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan, crack in the egg and fry to taste.
10 Heat 100ml/3 1/2fl oz double cream in a pan with 1 clove of crushed garlic, season and add chopped parsley. Serve the roasted fish with the spinach and egg and pour over the sauce.
