Sweet And Sour Fish Fillets Food

SWEET AND SOUR FISH

Steps:

• Cut halibut into bite-size pieces. Place in a mixing bowl and combine with soy sauce and 1 tablespoon of flour. Let stand for 30 minutes. Meanwhile, heat oil in deep-fryer or heavy saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Deep fry halibut pieces until golden brown. Drain on paper towels; set aside.
• For the Sauce, saute green pepper, onion and pineapple in a medium skillet for 1 minute. Stir in reserved pineapple juice, sugar, ketchup, water, remaining 2 teaspoons of flour, sesame oil, and salt to taste. Cook until thickened, stirring occasionally.
• Serve, by dipping fried halibut pieces into sauce, or pour the sauce over the fish.

CHINESE SWEET AND SOUR FISH

Steps:

• Mix the ingredients for the marinade together (except for the oil) and then mix in the chunks of fish. Make sure they are all well coated, and set it aside while you chop everything else. Mix together all the ingredients for the sauce and set it aside.
• Heat the 3 cups of oil in a wok or deep frying pan until it's about 350°F. If you don't have a thermometer, you'll know the oil is hot enough when a bit of flour flicked into it sizzles instantly. Get a baking sheet or tray handy and line it with paper towels. Fry the fish in two or three batches, separating the pieces of fish the moment they hit the hot oil. Cook until they turn golden brown, about 3 minutes. Remove and let them drain on the paper towels.
• When the fish is done, carefully pour off all but about 3 tablespoons of the oil. Add the chiles, ginger and garlic and stir-fry over high heat for 30 seconds. Add the fish and stir fry for a few seconds, then pour over the sauce ingredients -- be sure to stir the sauce before you pour it in because the starch will tend to settle to the bottom. Let this boil furiously for 1 minute, then turn off the heat.
• Stir in the chives and sesame oil and serve at once with steamed rice.

SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE FISH

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine fish and soy sauce. Marinate for about 30 minutes in the refrigerator. Drain well.
• In a bowl, whisk egg until frothy.
• In another bowl, combine flour, cornstarch, and salt and pepper to taste.
• Dredge fish fillets in flour mixture, dip in the beaten egg, and then dredge again in flour mixture to fully coat.
• In a pan over medium heat, heat about 1-inch deep of oil. Add battered fish fillets and cook, turning once or twice, until golden and cooked through. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
• In a bowl, combine pineapple juice, vinegar, ketchup, sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Stir until smooth.
• In a pan over medium heat, heat about 1 tablespoon oil. Add bell peppers and onions and cook, stirring regularly, until half cooked. Remove from pan and set aside.
• In the pan, add sauce mixture and bring to a boil, whisking regularly, for about 2 to 3 minutes or until thickened.
• Add bell peppers and onions and cook for about 1 minute or until tender yet crisp.
• Add fried fish fillets and cook and toss quickly just until coated with sauce. Serve hot.

CHINESE SWEET AND SOUR FISH FILLET STIR-FRY

Steps:

• Make sure your fish fillet is clean and pat dry to ensure your fried fish gets really crispy. Heat 3 cups of oil in a small pot (to conserve oil) to 380 degrees F. You can use a thermometer or check the temperature by putting a drop of batter into the oil. The batter should not turn brown right away. Instead, it should rise immediately to the surface and turn a very light golden brown.
• To make the batter, mix together all the dry ingredients--the flour, baking powder, cornstarch, salt, turmeric, and white pepper. When you're ready to fry, mix in the sesame oil and cold seltzer water until the batter is smooth.
• Next, drop the fish fillets into the batter. Ensure they are evenly coated, but allow the excess to drip off (if there's too much batter on the fish, you'll end up with dough balls!). Carefully place the fish into the oil one piece at a time, ensuring that they don't stick to each other. Fry in batches so that the fish pieces aren't overcrowded, frying for 3-4 minutes or until golden brown.
• Scoop the fried fish out and transfer to a cooling rack placed over a baking sheet to drain. Repeat until all the fish has been fried.
• Next, put two teaspoons of the frying oil in a separate wok or skillet over high heat, and toss in the onions, and peppers. Stir-fry for 30 seconds, and then stir in the ketchup. Fry for another 20 seconds--frying the ketchup brings out the color and makes for a better depth of flavor in the sweet and sour sauce.
• Mix in the pineapple, pineapple juice, red wine vinegar, water, salt, and sugar, and bring the liquid to a low simmer for 2 minutes. With the sweet and sour sauce still simmering, slowly stir in the cornstarch slurry until the sauce is thick enough to coat a spoon.
• At this point, if the fried fish fillets have softened, you can refry them in the oil heated to 400F for 30 seconds in larger batches. The higher heat is needed because the oil will cool immediately after putting in a larger batch of fish in the oil.
• Once the fish is ready, toss it into the wok, and fold into the sauce with 3 or 4 scooping motions until the pieces are lightly coated. Plate and serve immediately!

SWEET AND SOUR FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Slice the fish fillets into pieces about 2x1 inches. Dredge the pieces in corn starch and allow to dry slightly on waxed paper. Mix together the flour, egg, water and salt to make a batter.
• In a separate small pot, dissolve the brown sugar in the vinegar over medium heat. Stir together the corn starch and water and add it to the pot. Stir well. Add the pineapple, carrot, sweet pickles, peppers and tomato wedges. Cook for 3-5 minutes until the sauce is clear and not cloudy. Set the sauce aside.
• Pour the oil about halfway up the wok. Turn the heat to a medium high setting. When the oil is heated, take a small piece of bread and place it in the oil. If the bread browns lightly on both sides fairly quickly, the oil is ready. If the bread does not brown immediately, the oil is not hot enough. If the bread turns dark brown or black, turn off the burner and allow the oil to cool for 5 minutes before testing again.
• Place 8-10 pieces of fish in the batter. Carefully lift the pieces of fish from the batter into the oil. The fish will sink to the bottom and then rise up. When the fish rises, deep fry for 4 minutes, 2 minutes on each side. Remove the fish to paper towels to drain the excess oil. Repeat the process until all the pieces are fried.
• Arrange the fish on a serving platter. Pour the reserved sauce over the fish.

SWEET AND SOUR FISH

Steps:

• Put the fish in a bowl. Sprinkle over the five-spice powder and soy sauce, then toss gently.
• Cover and leave to marinate for about 30 minutes.
• Dip the fish in the egg, then in the cornflour, shaking off any excess.
• Half-fill a wok with oil and heat to 190oc. Deep fry the fish in batches for about 2 minutes until golden.
• Drain and keep warm. Carefully pour off all the oil from the wok and wipe clean.
• To make the sauce, blend together in a bowl the cornflour, water, pineapple juice, rice vinegar, sugar, soy sauce, ketchup and rice wine or sherry. Miz well then set aside.
• Heat the wok until hot. Add 2 teaspoons of the oil and swirl it around. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for a few seconds. Add the spring onions and green capsicum and stir-fry over a medium heat for 2 minutes. Add pineapple.
• Pour in the sauce and cook, stirring until thickened. Stir in the remaining 1 tablespoon oil and add seasoning to taste.
• Pour the sauce over the fish and serve at once.

SWEET AND SOUR FISH FILLETS

Steps:

• Bring a wok or large pot filled halfway with water to a boil and reduce to a simmer. Divide the fish between 2 plates that will fit into the basket layers of a bamboo steamer. Sprinkle the fish with sea salt and freshly ground white pepper. Drizzle 1 to 2 tablespoons of the pineapple juice over each plate of fish. Place the plates into the steamer, cover and set on top of the simmering water. Steam the fish until the flesh turns white and pulls apart easily, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove the steamer basket from the wok and set aside, keeping the fish covered.
• For the sauce: Place a wok over high heat and when the wok is hot, add the oil. Add the garlic and ginger and cook until fragrant, less than 1 minute. Add the red peppers and onions and toss to cook until tender, another minute. Add the pineapple chunks and their juice. Add the vinegar, soy sauce and brown sugar. Cook until the sauce thickens a bit 1 to 2 more minutes.
• Remove the fish to a platter. Season the sauce if needed and pour over the fish. Garnish with the sliced scallion.

SWEET AND SOUR PANFRIED SOLE

Steps:

• Make the Sauce:.
• Set a small saucepan over medium heat and stir together 1/4 cup water and the vinegar, soy sauce, ketchup, sesame oil, sugar and cornstarch. Bring this to a simmer and cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens - about 1 minute. Keep warm.
• Prep the Fish:.
• Lightly beat the eggs in a shallow pie dish. Spread the flour on one plate and the panko on another plate. Season the flour with a pinch each of the salt and pepper. Season the sole with a bit of salt on each side and then dip them first into the flour, then into the egg and finally the panko, coating each side evenly. You may want to press the panko into the fish with your fingertips to make sure it adheres well.
• Panfry:.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over med.-high to high heat until just hot and then add the oil. Add the fish and fry, turning once, until golden brown on both sides (about 3-4 minutes on each side). Depending on how big your pan is/ how many filets you have, you may need to fry the fish in batches. Have the extra oil handy in case the pan gets too dry while cooking.
• Drain the fish on paper towels briefly. Then serve the fish fillets with the sauce.
