Sweet and sour fish is one of the eight famous banquets in Yangzhou: Ingredients: some small fish (I choose the size of my little finger, silver, with the head removed, Walmaert here sells it, ready-made in bags)

Old ginger, scallion or sesame soy sauce (do not use dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, fresh soy sauce, spicy soy sauce), vinegar, sugar and fried oil 2: Method: Defrost the small fish you bought, drain the water and spread it flat on a large plate Place it on a baking sheet (I use a baking pan, which is large enough)

Put it in a dry or ventilated place and blow dry (this step is mainly for the crispy texture of the small fish and to prevent the oil from splashing when frying. If you want to save time, you can dry it gently with thick absorbent paper)

For seasoning, take a large bowl and add soy sauce, sugar, vinegar and ginger according to your preference. If you like spicy, you can add Add chili sauce or chili oil, and mix thoroughly (my own sauce is sour, sweet and slightly spicy. It is recommended to add more sugar and vinegar, then dip your chopsticks into it to taste, then add a little soy sauce, and finally add in Pour a little chili oil) and mix thoroughly and put it in the refrigerator for later use

Take out the seasoning, heat half a pot of oil in the pot, it is recommended to use high heat, and then start frying the small fish until the small fish turn golden brown and hard. When it is ready, take it out and put it into the cold seasoning (usually you will hear a slight attractive squeaking sound) and stir it. After a few seconds, take it out and put it on a plate. Note that the small fish are fried while being taken out, and then quickly Add the seasoning so that the flavor of the seasoning will penetrate into the small fish. The small fish should not be soaked in the seasoning for too long because it will not be crispy.

Finally, sprinkle with some minced green onions or sesame seeds, and a little pepper if you like.

In this way, you have a plate of crispy, sweet and sour, delicious sweet and sour fish. And it’s not too fishy.

Note: The small fish has been fried so the spines are crispy, but the fish will become softer after being cooked. You can eat it with the spines. It is a calcium-supplementing dish for children.
