Ingredients




1 medium-sized or large Pomfret
½ tsp of Salt
1 Egg-white
1 tsp Corn Flour
Pinch of Pepper
Thai chilli sauce for serving
Oil for deep-frying

Preparation

1 Remove entrails if it is not done by your supplier, and clean the Pomfret. Pat dry, and butterfly fish from top down. 2 Marinate fish for about 30 minutes, then rub egg-white on it. Coat with flour after that. 3 Heat oil. Use a pair of chopsticks to check if oil is hot enough. When there are bubbles around the chopsticks, the oil is at the right temperature. Lower the fish, butterfly-side down. Deep fry till golden-brown so that it will open up nicely before laying the entire fish down in oil. Deep fry fish till crispy. 4 Serve your Thai-Style Deep-Fried Golden Pomfret immediately with a sweet chilli sauce.
