Recipe : Pan-fried greasy grouper

posted by Justin D. Pereira

Ingredients:
- 1 greasy grouper fish fillet
- salt
- plain flour
-1 stalk green onion, chopped

Method:
1. Heat up a medium sized frying pan with about 3 tablespoons of oil on a medium fire.
2. Wash the fillet with water and a rub it with salt. Rinse it again. While the oil is heating up, lightly sprinkle some salt and plain flour ( about 1/2 tablespoon ) on both sides of the fish fillet. Rub gently to spread evenly on both sides.
3. Place the fish in the heated pan and do not move the fish for 5 minutes. This is to obtain and nice golden brown colour on one side and prevent the fillet from breaking.
4. After about 5 minutes, turn the fish and cook the other side.
5. Place in a dish and with the remaining oil, pour some of it on the fillet. Drizzle the fillet with light soy sauce and serve.

Tips:
Corn flour can be used instead of plain flour.
If you find that the fish is not cooked thoroughly, you can place it in a microwave oven on high for 1 minute.
