Pat fish belly dry with paper towels. Season with light soy sauce and white pepper.
In a small bowl, combine diced preserved radish, minced garlic, remaining light soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and remaining white pepper. Mix well.
Spread a thin layer of julienned ginger on a heatproof plate. Arrange the seasoned fish belly on top.
Spoon the preserved radish mixture evenly over the fish belly.
Bring water in a steamer to a rolling boil. Carefully place the plate with the fish into the steamer.
Steam for 7-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
Carefully remove the plate from the steamer. Heat cooking oil in a small pan until smoking hot. Drizzle the hot oil over the steamed fish.
Garnish with sliced spring onion and serve immediately with rice.
