Fried Fish with Tomato and Plum Sauce

When I eat fish, I like it dry and crispy, and I can chew on the bones. Most of the time I treat fish dishes like snack! So, naturally when I fry, I make it this way – also following my mom’s usual cooking style.
But yesterday DH grumbled about the fish being too dry, then I remembered that his mother’s cooking style is completely different. She likes to use a lot of water and sauces, even with fried dishes.
So, I tried to experiment making some sauces to cover on my favourite fried garoupa fish (石斑/ sek-ban ==> hope I got the name right!). It turned out great! Children can eat a lot of rice with the sauce too. I think I start to get a good hang of this now. LOL!
Ingredients
2 medium garoupa fishes
1 large onion, wedged
6 tbsp tomato sauce
2 tbsp plum sauce
1 cup water
1 tsp tapioca powder
Method
1. Fry fishes and remove when cooked, set aside.
2. Remove oil and leave only about 1 tbsp.
3. Sautee onion at med until soft and semi transparent.
4. Dissolve tapiocca flour into the water, stir well.
5. Add tapioca water, tomato sauce and plum sauce into the wok.
6. Stir fry until the sauce thickened, pour onto the fishes. Serve hot.
