Ingredients

            3 tsp miso paste

            
3 tsp salt-reduced soy sauce

            
2 tbs orange juice

            
2 garlic cloves, crushed

            
2 tsp honey

            
4 (about 150g each) firm white fish fillets

            
2 Lebanese cucumbers, trimmed

            
1 firm ripe avocado, peeled, cut into 1.5cm pieces

            
1 tbs rice vinegar

            
2 tsp sesame oil

            
2 cups steamed brown rice

            
2 tsp sesame seeds, lightly toasted

            
Steamed snow peas, to serve

Directions

Step 1
: Combine the miso paste, soy sauce, orange juice, garlic and honey in a glass or ceramic bowl. Add the fish and turn to coat. Cover and place in the fridge for 30 minutes to marinate.

Step 2: 
Preheat oven to 200C. Line a large baking tray with baking paper. Place a wire rack on top. Drain the fish from the marinade and place on the rack. Bake for 12 minutes or until the fish is golden and flakes easily when tested with a fork.

Step 3: 
Meanwhile, use a vegetable peeler to peel the cucumber into ribbons. Place the cucumber and avocado in a bowl. Add the vinegar and oil and toss to combine.

Step 4: 
Divide the rice among plates. Top with the avocado mixture and fish. Sprinkle with the sesame seeds. Serve with steamed snow peas.
