Chilli fish and fish manchurian are same in few restaurants, but in some restaurants fish manchurian is made with fish balls. But the sauce remains the same. I do not prefer to deep fry salmon anytime since the nutrients would be drained in the oil which I discard. But this is the only kind of fish that we prefer and is most commonly made at home considering the health benefits. So sometimes I do deep fry and sometimes even bake the fish and then put them in the Manchurian sauce.If you do not want to deep fry the fish, you can bake it following the same recipe and then season it in the Manchurian sauce. This time I had a cake getting baked in the oven when I intended to prepare this chili fish, so I deep fried. You can choose any fish of your choice, but make sure you use a large fish fillet that has no bones. Spring onions are very important in any Indo chinese recipes but I did not use them since I had no stock of it at home. So I used a white onion.I have not used ginger garlic paste for the marination, if you like you can use. Bell peppers are optional.

Preparation

  1. Wash and cut the fish to cube sized pieces.
  2. Add ginger garlic, soya sauce and pepper powder. Marinate and Set aside for at least 10 mins.
  3. Stir to a bowl vinegar, sugar, soya sauce and red chili sauce. Set this aside. Add more or less sauce as needed. To get a nice red color you can also add little red chili paste. I mix little red chili powder with very little water and then use it.
  4. Heat oil in a pan for deep or shallow frying or can even bake these.
  5. Add corn flour, all-purpose, little salt and mix well. Sprinkle very little water and mix well to coat the fish with flour. Do not make it runny. Refer the pic. Fish must be coated with a thin layer of batter.
  6. When the oil is hot, reduce the flame slightly and then fry these pieces to golden. Drain these on kitchen tissue.
  7. Once you finish frying, drain off the oil from the pan retaining 2 tbsp. oil in the same pan
