Sweet and Sour Fish - Escabeche

Escabeche
Best to prepare all the needed ingredients for faster and efficient cooking.
Clean fish. Season with salt both sides.
Fry fish until they are brown.
In the same skillet, saute the onions and garlic.

When onions are translucent, add tomatoes and the ginger.

 
Add vinegar mixture.

This dish is aromatic and the flavor is wonderful. I missed cooking my fish this way. So when presented with the opportunity to cook fish again, this is the first recipe that came to mind.


INGREDIENTS:

1 Lb. Grouper of any fish of your choice
1/2 Cup sugar
1/2 Cup white vinegar
1/2 Cup Bell Pepper (use red for color coordination, I used green because of the availability)
1 Cup mushroom buttons, sliced
1/2 Cup water
3 Tbsp minced garlic
1 Cup chopped onion
2 Tbsp ginger, sliced
1 Tbsp All purpose flour
1 Cup red tomatoes
Oil
Salt to taste


DIRECTIONS:

1. Clean fish. Season with salt on both sides. Mix vinegar, water, sugar and salt for sweet and sour taste. Set aside.

2. In a medium skillet, heat oil and fry fish. Remove from pan and set aside.

3. In the same skillet, saute garlic and onion; garlic until light brown and onion, transparent. Add tomatoes, then ginger. Add vinegar mixture.

4. Bring to a boil, add fried fish, mushrooms, pepper, and flour to thicken.

5. Cover skillet and simmer for 5 minutes. Serve hot.

Enjoy!
