Marmite Fish Fillet

Categories: All, Fish, Roasted/Fry
My children love Marmite cooked dishes very much. Every time when we go out for meals, if we order rice with Marmite Fish Fillet, both Ian and Isabel would fight for the same dish. Ian would finish very fast, and all by himself.
So, I tried to cook the same dish, and found a few variations of the recipe. Here is one of the many variations, which I quite like.

INGREDIENTS
Fish
2 large pcs of Garoupa fish fillets
Some tapioca flour
Some cooking oil
Marmite Sauce
1 pip of garlic, crushed and finely chopped
2 tbsp Marmite yeast extract
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp honey
Dash of pepper
1/2 cup or 100ml of water
METHOD
1. Dry the fish fillets with cloth before cutting the fish fillets into thin slices.
2. Add some tapioca to coat the fish fillets.
3. Heat some oil in wok.
4. Just before frying the fish, coat the fish (already coated with tapioca flour) with some oil, and immediately drop into the wok. This way, the fish will be nicely fried.
5. Fry the fish till it turn golden yellow. Drain and put aside.
6. Remove excessive oil, reserve only about a tbsp for sauce.
7. Heat the oil, add in garlic and fry till fragrant.
8. Add in sugar, Marmite and honey. Stir fry for a while. Add in pepper.
9. Lastly, add in water and simmer a while, before adding the fish fillet earlier. Stir fry to well coat the fish with the sauce. Serve hot.

One thing that I don’t like about chinese dishes (sweet sour/marmite/spring onion pork/chicken/fish etc) is that you have to deep fry the meat.
Not really healthy and it makes a oily mess in the kitchen.
But these dishes are delicious though…sigh

Ya, me too. I actually been doing a lot of frying all these while. I prefer steaming, but DH is always home late – like 3 hours after we eat. If steam, fish would be not nice already. Actually Angmo dishes better – baked. Good for health, but bad for $$ –> electricity mah! Hahahahaha!

[...] is almost identical to the Marmite Fish Fillet. I was given these 2 pieces of tenggiri fish and was cracking my head how I wanted it to be cooked. [...]
