Method

1
To make the broth, place a large saucepan over a low heat and add the oil. Add the onion, leek, fennel, and mushrooms to the pan and cook gently until soft but without colour
2
Pour in the sparkling water and add the cabbage and chilli. Bring to the boil, reduce to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes
3
After this time, remove from the heat and add the soy sauce, vinegar, mirin and fish sauce. Squeeze in the lime juice, add the coriander and keep warm while you prepare the sea bass
4
Lightly season the fish with salt and cook in a steamer for 8–10 minutes. Once cooked, divide the broth between bowls, arranging the vegetables evenly and elegantly. Top with the sea bass and sprinkle with coriander cress and chilli just before serving

Although steeped in the techniques of the classical French kitchen, Martin Wishart’s culinary imagination has a distinctly contemporary edge.
