Heat the oven to 200C, 180C fan, gas mark 6. Mix together the prepared spring onion, ginger and garlic, then sprinkle 1/3 of this mixture over the bottom of a shallow lidded casserole pan, or in a lipped roasting tin.

Arrange the pak choi over the top, then sprinkle over another 1/3 of the spring onions mix and top this with the trout.

Mix together the mirin, soy sauce, rice wine and sesame oil, pour over the fish, then scatter with the remaining spring onion mixture and season with a little black pepper. Put on the lid, or wrap tightly with foil, and bake in the oven for 30 minutes. Serve with rice.
