Skate wings poached in miso and ginger with chilli and coriander
About
This skate recipe is a quick and delightfully simple fish dish, developed by Geoffrey Smeddle for the Sunday Herald. Miso is traditionally made from fermented soy beans and brings an exciting dimension to this Asian-inspired skate recipe, beautifully offset by the piquant chilli and warm ginger.
