Chinese Fish

Rating: 3 stars

'A Chinese friend gave me this recipe for flavorful fish,' writes Ruth Solyntjes of Waterville, Minnesota. 'She didn't know U.S. measurements, so I'd hold up a plastic teaspoon and as, 'How much?' for each ingredient she used.'

I used this recipe because I had orange roughy on hand, and it seemed simple enough for me to tackle. I was pleasantly surprised at the results. I only used the ingredients I had on hand, so I neglected to add green onions, five-spice powder, red pepper flakes, and ginger. I also substituted rice vinegar for cider vinegar. Despite my many alterations to the recipe, the soy sauce and vinegar (and especially the garlic) worked wonders. I cooked it in the skillet, with water, until the fish flaked easily. The texture, taste, and appearance of the dish was great. Read More

This recipe was okay. I did make a few changes I used allspice instead of chinese five powder & olive oil instead of canola. Bake in the oven for 20 mins cover with sauce. I did not like the taste of the sauce so I took a small pot & simmer sauce adding two tbls of brown sugar & 2 tbls of honey and another tbls of soy sauce. Add a tablespoon of cornstarch to thicken sauce. Simmer for 10 mins the sauce taste great. I cover the fish with the sauce soooo good. Served with wild rice & kale topped with bacon. Read More
