Cover and keep warm. Just before serving, toss with pineapple, chilli, fish sauce and coriander. Heat oil in a frypan over medium-high heat. Add the capsicum and cook for 2-3 minutes until starting to soften. Add ginger, chilli and tomatoes, and stir for 1-2 minutes. Stir in honey and vinegar. Meanwhile, line a steamer with baking paper. Place fish fillets, in a single layer, in the steamer. Cover and steam over a pan of simmering water for 6-8 minutes until just cooked. Divide the rice among serving plates. Top with steamed fish, then spoon over the sauce and garnish with spring onion. If you do not like fish you can easily make this something else you prefer!!
