Steamed Garoupa Fish Belly

You know the last few days , I had this this sudden craving for steamed fish belly. To me the belly is the best part of the fish :)  Managed to get 2 pieces of Garoupa fish bellies from Canning market .  I paid RM13 for two small pieces of bellies and just because I had this stupid cravings or else I would not even want to pay it :p  Anyway, called it menopause cravings or whatever you like, I really craved for these bellies. I steamed them plain with ginger and its juices and guess what ? I had two bowls of rice !!! Supposed to be off rice but this craving really upset everything :p  Alright...so I pampered myself and steamed this for dinner. 

love the smooth texture of the belly...

so fresh and sweet

lots of chopped ginger and juices

and sea salt truly brings out the sweetness of the

fish belly
