Steps:
- Discard any bruised or wilted outer leaves from bok choy, then cut leaves from stalks, keeping leaves and stalks separate. Thinly slice leaves and cut stalks diagonally into 1/2-inch-wide slices. Halve carrot lengthwise and cut diagonally into 1/4-inch-thick slices.
- Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a 4- to 5-quart heavy pot over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then stir-fry bok choy stalks, carrot, and ginger 1 minute. Stir in Sherry, broth, and sugar and simmer, covered, 5 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cut scallions crosswise into 2-inch pieces, then halve lengthwise and cut into very thin matchsticks.
- Add bok choy leaves and scallions to carrot mixture and simmer, covered, until vegetables are tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
- While vegetables simmer, pat fish dry and sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir together cornstarch and curry powder, then rub into skin of each fillet. Halve each fillet diagonally with a sharp knife.
- Stir sesame oil, remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt, and remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper into vegetable mixture and keep warm, uncovered, on turned-off burner.
- Heat remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then cook fish, skin sides down, gently pressing occasionally with a metal spatula (to keep skin flat), until skin is golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Turn fish over and cook until just cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Remove from heat.

This is great for a gourmet taste on a tight schedule. Also, my husband, who isn't a fish fan, requests this recipe! Drizzle sauce over fish, and serve with vegetables.

SAUTEED RED SNAPPER
The mild, slightly sweet flavor and flaky texture of red snapper takes well to light seasoning and a quick saute. You can also make this dish with black sea bass. The skin of both fish is edible and crisps nicely in a skillet.

Steps:
- Cut each snapper fillet in half crosswise. Season flesh with salt and cayenne pepper.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until hot (but not smoking). Place snapper fillets, skin sides down, in skillet, pressing on fish with a spatula for 1 minute to prevent curling. Cook until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Flip, and cook until opaque throughout, 2 to 3 minutes more.
Tips:
- To ensure the freshest fish, purchase red snapper that has clear eyes, bright red gills, and firm flesh.
- If you don't have a fishmonger who can clean and fillet the red snapper for you, ask the fishmonger to do it for you.
- If you are using frozen red snapper, thaw it in the refrigerator overnight or in a bowl of cold water for about 30 minutes.
- Pat the red snapper fillets dry with paper towels before cooking to prevent the fish from splattering.
- Season the red snapper fillets liberally with salt and pepper before cooking.
- Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or sauté pan to cook the red snapper. This will help to prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
- Heat the oil in the skillet or sauté pan over medium-high heat before adding the red snapper fillets.
- Cook the red snapper fillets for 3-4 minutes per side, or until the fish is cooked through.
- Serve the red snapper fillets immediately with your favorite sides.
