A delicious Sweet and Sour Fish Chunks recipe.



Coat the fish chunks with a cornstarch batter (same method as for sweet and sour whole fish). Add salt and a splash of oil, and mix well.

When the oil reaches about 100°C (low-medium heat), deep-fry the fish chunks. After the first fry, remove them, raise the oil temperature, and fry again until crispy.

Heat the wok, add cool oil. Toss in scallions and ketchup, stir until fragrant. Add carrot, wood ear mushroom, and cucumber. Pour in rice vinegar and sugar (slightly more sugar than vinegar), add water and salt. Taste and adjust. Thicken with a cornstarch slurry.

Add the double-fried fish chunks back in, toss everything together evenly, drizzle with hot oil, and plate.
