Herb Tip |
Select firm fish fillets and cut them into pieces approximately 1/2
inch thick by 1 inch by 3 inches. Marinate 2 to 3 hours in mixture of
ginger root, green onions, soy and wine. Heat oil in heavy skillet.
Drain fish slices, reserving marinade, and fry until brown on both
sides. Drain on paper toweling. Remove oil from skillet. Combine
five-spice powder, sugar and water. Add to skillet and stir well.
Return fish to skillet with reserved marinade and cook until sauce is
reduced by one-half. Cool and serve at room temperature.
