Fish Recipe : Thai Style Steam Fish and Benefits of Eating Fish

Many research studies have reported on the benefits of Eating Fish as a good source of Protein, low calory and cholesterol, as well as rich in non-saturated fatty acid that is essential for maintaining good health for Heart Functioning.

I personally like this dish for its delicious taste, and in additional to that, the steamed sauce which comprises of Garlic and Pasley are both the enhancer for Good Heart Health, lowering High Blood Pressure and Cholesterols.

How to Cook Thai Style Steam Fish

1. Prepare fish, clean and, pet dry. Cut slits on the fish where the fresh is thick. Rub salt on the fish and place on a steaming dish

2. Bring water in the steamer to boil.

Steam fish over high heat for 8 to 10 minutes, or till cooked. Pour away the steaming liquid

3. Mixed well the Sauce. Pour the sauce mixture overall the steamed fish. Steam again for a minute. Remove.

4. Decorate the steamed fish with Coriander leaves and chilli.

** TIPS : The steaming fish liquid has a fishy taste and smell, hence it is best to discard the liquid so it does not affect the flavour of the dish.



Benefits of Eating Fish
 
But last October the Harvard School of Public Health reviewed existing studies that looked at the health effects of eating fish -- and the jury's come back in favor of... eating fish!


The Harvard study recommended eating up to two portions of fish a week and that eating fish could cut the risk of death from heart disease by a third. The evidence across different studies showed that fish consumption lowers the risk of death from heart disease by 36 per cent.

The oils in some fish appear to reduce the blood from clotting by reducing the stickiness of the blood. The most beneficial fish in this context is oily fish such as salmon or mackerel. The researchers also suggested that eating that amount of fish or fish oil intake reduces total mortality by 17 per cent.
