Chilli Fish - Chinese Fish preparation


Ingredients

3 Seer Fish pieces(cut into 1 inch cubes)
a pinch of Ajinomoto
1 tsp White Pepper Powder
1/2 tsp. Sugar
2 tbsp Soy Sauce
2 tbsp Tomato-garlic sauce
1 tbsp Green chilli sauce
1 Onion - sliced big(optional)
1 small Cherry Tomato(sliced thin)-(optional)
2 tbsp Corn Flour
2 tbsp powdered Cornflakes
1  Egg
2  Green Chilies
3 tbsp chopped Green bell pepper
2 tbsp chopped Spring onion
4 cloves Garlic
1 cm size Ginger (grated)
100 ml Refined oil for deep-frying
1/2 tsp Salt- to taste

Directions

    1.Marinate the fish pieces(one inch cubes) in 1 tbsp Soy sauce,1/4 tsp salt,egg,powdered cornflakes and 1 tbsp cornflour for 20 mins.
    2.Deep fry chicken in hot oil till light brown on sides.
    3.Heat 1 tbsp refined oil in a frying pan. Add chopped garlic,sliced Onion,chopped green chilies,sliced cherry tomato(optional) and capsicum slices.Toss it 3-4 times.
    4.Add 50ml of chicken stock or water.Bring it to a boil.Add ajinomoto,sugar,white pepper powder,1/4 tsp salt,rest of the Soya sauce and tomato-garlic sauce.
    5.Add the remaining cornflour- dissolving it in water.Stir continuously.
    6.Add deep-fried fish pieces and stir it for 2 mins so that the sauce spreads evenly with the fish pieces  and the fish pieces shd not get too wet or soggy.
    7.Garnish with chopped spring onions and green chilies julienne.This will turn out amazingly Yumm!.

Note:
1.U can stop with 2 steps if u want this as fry .This will go with Rice with Sambar,Rasam and Yoghurt.
2.I have added cherry tomato slices,onion slices and tomato-garlic sauce to increase the gravy and this will go great with plain rice and plain noodles.If u try this fish for Fried rice, then u can try this recipe (avoiding these three ingredients) as semi-dry.
