Pan Fry a Whole Fish

It takes skills to pan fry a whole fish without its skin sticking to the pan or breaking it up when you try to flip it over to fry the other side. Learn some tips and tricks to get your fish fried nicely from this video.

If you prefer your pan fried fish with less sauce, use the recipe from The Wok of Life.

Mix the following ingredients in a small bowl:

-2 tablespoons hot water
-1/4 teaspoon salt
-1 teaspoon sugar
-2 tablespoons soy sauce
-A pinch of fresh ground white pepper

Heat 2 tablespoons oil to fry 2-3 slices of ginger (1/8-inch thick) till they begin to sizzle. Add the above sauce mixture and heat it up until it simmers. Set it aside

Add the 2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine around the perimeter of the wok of pan fried fish and let cook off for 30 seconds. Pour the soy sauce mixture around the perimeter of the wok and turn the heat back up until the sauce is simmering (about 30 seconds). Add in the chopped scallions and it is ready to be served.
