Instructions
-
Prepare the Fish:
Begin by thoroughly washing the Dory fillet and cutting it into portions according to your preference. In a mixing bowl, combine the fillet with the juice of the small limes, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to taste. Ensure the fish is well coated with the marinade. Cover and allow it to marinate for 20-30 minutes to enhance the flavors. -
-
Coating the Fish:
In a separate bowl, mix the all-purpose flour and cornstarch together, adding a pinch of seasoning for added flavor. Dip each marinated piece of Dory fish into the beaten egg, ensuring it’s completely coated. Next, transfer the fish to the flour mixture, pressing lightly to ensure that the coating adheres evenly. -
Frying the Fish:
Heat oil in a pan over low heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the coated Dory fish pieces to the pan. Fry them until they turn a beautiful golden color and are cooked through, which should take approximately 4-5 minutes on each side. Once cooked, remove them from the oil and allow them to drain on paper towels. -
Preparing the Sauce:
In a clean pan, heat a small amount of oil and sauté the sliced garlic and onion until fragrant. Add the water along with oyster sauce, ketchup, chili sauce, and sweet soy sauce. Stir the mixture well to combine the ingredients. Gradually add the cornstarch slurry to the sauce, stirring continuously until it thickens to your desired consistency. -
Cooking the Vegetables:
In a separate pot, bring water to a boil and add the sliced green beans, carrots, and broccoli. Season with a pinch of salt and blanch the vegetables briefly, just until they are tender yet still crisp, which should take about 2-3 minutes. Remove the vegetables from the pot and set aside. -
Frying the Potatoes:
For a crunchy accompaniment, peel and slice the potatoes, then fry them in hot oil until golden brown. Drain the excess oil on paper towels. -
Serving:
On a serving plate, artfully arrange the fried Dory fish alongside the vibrant vegetables and crispy potatoes. Drizzle the rich black pepper sauce over the fish or serve it on the side for dipping. -
