Ingredients:
• 500g white fish fillets, thawed if frozen (£2.50)
• 1 spring onion, trimmed and finely shredded (7p)
For the sauce:
• 150 ml water
• 1 Tbsp sugar (1p)

Method:
1. Rinse the fish in cold water, then drain and pat dry with kitchen paper. Cut into 5cm pieces.
2.Trim the spring onion, slicing the white part and finely shredding the green. Put the green into a bowl of cold water, and it will start to curl.
3. Put the water, sugar, Soy Sauce, vinegar and cornflour in a wok or large frying pan and slowly bring to the boil.
4.Stir in ginger, garlic and white spring onions. Then gently lay the fish fillets on top in a single layer.

6. Spoon onto a platter, scatter over the curled green onions and serve at once with cooked brown rice and tender stem broccoli.
