Fried Garlic, Ginger, Red Chilly infused Sea Bass

Ingredients:

3 sea bass skin on and scaled
About 3 tbsp oil, a bit of chilly oil and butter.

Large knob of ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks
3 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
3 red chilies deseeded and shredded
Bunch of spring onions also known as scallions or green onions, diced.
1 tbsp soy sauce

Method:

Season 3 the Sea Bass with salt and pepper, then cut gashes into the fish.



Heat a heavy-based frying pan and add chilly oil and butter. Once hot, fry the sea bass, skin-side down, for 5 mins or until the skin is very crisp and golden. The fish will be almost cooked through.





Turn over, cook for another 30 seconds - 1 minute, then transfer to a serving plate and keep warm.





Heat 2 tbsp oil, then fry the large knob of peeled ginger, cut into matchsticks, 3 thinly sliced garlic cloves and 3 thinly shredded red chillies for about 2 mins until golden. At the very end add chopped spring onions.



Take off the heat, splash the fish with 1 tbsp soy sauce and spoon over the contents of the pan.

French fries with a dusting of chilly powder to go?
