Ingredients

  1. Flathead fillets – approx. 600g (skinless)
  2. ½ tsp dried chilli flakes (plus extra for garnish)
  3. ½ tsp five spice powder
  4. Salt and pepper, to taste
  5. 1 tbsp rice bran oil or sunflower oil (for cooking)
  6. 1 bunch broccoli, cut into florets
  7. 1 bunch asparagus, cut into 3cm pieces
  8. 1 red capsicum, thinly sliced
  9. 2 tbsp soy sauce
  10. 1 tbsp Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry)

Method

  1. In a bowl, toss the skinless flathead fillets with 1/2 teaspoon each of dried chilli flakes and five spice powder. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  2. Heat the rice bran or sunflower oil in a wok over medium heat. In two batches, cook the fish fillets for 2 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. Transfer to a plate and cover tightly with foil to keep warm.
  3. Increase the heat to high and stir-fry the broccoli, asparagus, and red capsicum for 1 minute. Add the soy sauce, Chinese rice wine (or dry sherry), and the remaining chilli flakes and five spice. Stir-fry for an additional 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are just tender.
  4. Divide the stir-fried vegetables among four plates and top each with the cooked fish fillets.

Chef's Tip

Flathead works beautifully with bold Asian-inspired spices because its delicate, flaky texture absorbs flavour while still remaining light and fresh. Cooking the fish quickly over high heat keeps it tender inside while allowing the spices to toast and become aromatic. Crisp wok-tossed vegetables add colour, crunch, and freshness, balancing the warmth of the chilli and five spice perfectly.
