Oriental Braised Fish

Ingredients 

1 rainbow trout 
Salt 
Coarse ground pepper (about one tsp)
Shallots 1-2
Garlic 2-3 cloves, finely minced
Ginger, julienned 
1 tbsp soy sauce
1 red chilli
Green onions
Lemon

Slice through the flesh of the fish on both sides.

Now rub salt and pepper on the fish . 

In the cast iron pan, fry the fish on both sides till it gets golden brown. 

In the other pan, take a little oil and fry the shallots till it becomes translucent. Add ginger and garlic in there.

Throw in the sliced red chilli and soy sauce in the same pan. When it becomes little aromatic, add in few drops of sesame oil and little water. 

Add this sauce over to the frying fish, and braise the fish to get all the flavours of the sauce. 


Once done, garnish with green onions. Serve with lemon wedges.
