Wykonanie
Wykonanie
- In a stainless-steel saucepan over a medium heat, add 1 T oil and, when hot, gently sauté the onion until translucent.
- Add the ginger, garlic and spices and fry gently for a few minutes, or until fragrant.
- Add the vinegar and sugar and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Simmer for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, dust the fish with the seasoned flour and pat off any excess.
- Heat 1 T oil in a heavy-based frying pan and, when hot, fry the fish until golden but still succulent.
- Place a layer of fish in a deep sterile glass or non-metallic container and pour a little of the hot sauce over it, to cover. Continue layering fish and sauce until all the fish is covered.
- Cool, then chill until ready to serve.
TASTE’s take: An old South African Cape recipe, with a few additions and subtractions, this meal is best left for two or three days to allow the fish to absorb the flavours. Watch the cooking demo here. Discover more ideas with pickled fish here.
