Whole fried fish

Crispy local sea bass or rock fish with citrus soy sauce and spring onions

Sauce
¼ cup orange juice
¼ cup hoison sauce
½ bunch chopped cilantro
½ inch grated fresh ginger
1 clove minced or microplaned garlic
¼ soy sauce
Salt and pepper to taste

Mix all together in a small mixing bowl

Spring onions
1 bunch scallions or spring onions
toss in neutral cooking oil and seasoned with salt and pepper. Can be cooked on a hot BBQ or seared in a skillet.


Whole fish, scaled and gutted. (Depending on the size I like to do one per person)

1 box Cornstarch
Salt and pepper
Home fryer or a large pot of neutral cooking oil

Pat the fish dry with paper towels, slice into the flesh fallowing the pattern of the gills and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Dust fish inside and out with cornstarch and place in hot oil. Cook until you can pull a chunk of the flesh away from the bone. It is cooked when not transparent.
