Instructions

  1. Dice fish fillet into 1.5-inch bite-sized pieces. Pat the diced fish dry with paper towel.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, add diced fish along with fish batter ingredients except the cornstarch. Mix well until each piece of fish is seasoned. Then add in the cornstarch last to coat each piece well. Set aside as you prepare the rest of your ingredients.
  3. Heat ⅓ cup vegetable oil in a large pan on medium heat until you reach an oil temperature of 350 degrees F with a digital instant read thermometer.
  4. Fry battered fish in small batches and shallow fry on each side until crispy golden brown, about 7-8 minutes in total.
  5. Transfer fish to a wire rack or a paper towel lined plate to drain off excess oil. Excess oil creates soggy fish.
  6. Reserve 1 teaspoon of the leftover oil in the pan and discard the rest. Sauté garlic, ginger, green onions, white granulated sugar, salt, black pepper, and curry powder for 10 seconds or until fragrant.
  7. Add fried fish into the pan followed by Shaoxing wine. Toss everything together. Serve immediately and enjoy hot!
