Sweet and Sour Fish

Where could that fish be? Did you see it? Actually the head and tail are showing lolz!

I know...I know, I loaded it with too much onions as in too much onions, tons of bell peppers and lots of carrots. tee-hee.

But it was still a favorite that day!

So how did I made this sweet and sour fish;

You need;

1/2 kilo of white fleshed fish (used tilapia)

tsp. of minced chopped garlic

1-1/2 to 2 c. of cooking oil

1 bell pepper

few pieces of julienned ginger

1/2 cup julienned carrots

1 onion, cut into eighths (here I used 2)

1 tomato chopped

1/2 cup ketchup

1/2 vinegar

1/2 cup water

sugar

tsp of cornstarch

salt

Then you have to;

Make cut 2 to 3 slits on the flesh of both sides of the fish and sprinkle salt all over and set aside for few minutes.

Combine ketchup, vinegar, sugar, water, 1 tsp salt, and cornstarch in a bowl, set aside.

Fry fish in high heat until goldern brown on both side. Remove from heat and drain excess oil.

In a saucepan, saute onion then garlic, add the ginger. Then add the tomato. Followed by the carrots and bell pepper. Mix everything. When the vegtables are cook (dont overcook) stir in the sweet and sour sauce and bring to boil. Simmer for a minute or until it thickens. Turn off heat.

Pour over fried fish and serve!
