dory fish fillet

i fried the vegetables & fish in separate wokpans.

fish fillet using my usual marinade – 2 tbsp olive oil, 2 tbsp mirin, 2 tbsp light soy sauce. for sweet & sour i added 1 tbsp flat sugar, 1 tbsp white wine vinegar & 3 tbsp heap tomato ketchup.

also added 2 tsp chopped garlic, & some sesame oil.

the fish i fried only about 4 mins, not to overcook.

onions & carrots

as there was a lot of liquids, i strained the fish & added the liquids to the vegetables.

i added 1 tbsp oyster sauce & 1 tbsp corn flour & some slat to taste. covered & let the carrots cook & sauce thicken.
