Wash and scale fish. Scrape skin off ginger and slice very thinly, then cut slices into very fine slivers. Marinate ginger in strained lemon juice while preparing remaining ingredients.

Heat oils in a small pan and fry sliced garlic slowly, taking care not to let it burn.

Slices should be pale golden. Pour garlic over the ginger. In the same pan, dry fry the sesame seeds until golden brown. Add to the ginger/garlic mixture.

Add soy and mix well then sprinkle over fish fillets and steam in individual leaf or foil packages for 15 minutes. After cooking, take care in opening the packet because of the steam.
