Fried fish slices with fermented black beans

I normally have this dish in a Mongolian style restaurant in Petaling Jaya and it was so delicious. Unfortunately the restaurant is closed now so had to cook this dish at home. I like to cook this dish a bit dry so that the fish does not become too soggy but you can add more water if you want more gravy to put on the rice. 

Ingredients

2 threadfin fish fillets with the skin on (easier to fry)
1 small green bell pepper
1 small red bell pepper
1 medium sized or 2 small Bombay onion
2 tbsp fermented black beans



Cut the fish fillets into fairly big pieces
Then season with ground white pepper and light soya sauce




Cube the onions and peppers





Put 1 tbsp corn flour onto the fish just before cooking





Heat up some oil until very hot
Put in the fish slices skin side down




Turn the fish over when the skin is slightly golden in colour





Remove from the wok and keep aside





Leave ½ tbsp oil in the wok and put in the onions
Mix thoroughly in the oil




When the onions are slightly soft add the bell peppers and stir well





Add the black beans and a little water
Season with salt and pepper according to your taste
Mix thoroughly




Put in the fried fish and mix well
Add a bit more water if it looks too dry
Dish up and serve immediately
