Ingredients

1 x Marion’s Kitchen Sichuan Chilli Stir-fry Kit, which includes:

   – SEASONED FLOUR

   – SICHUAN PEPPER & CHILLIES

   – SICHUAN STIR-FRY SAUCE

500g firm white fish fillets (we use snapper), cut into bite-sized pieces

½ tsp sea salt

vegetable oil, for frying

2 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 tbsp finely grated ginger

2 spring onions, finely sliced

Steamed rice, to serve

Marion’s Kitchen Crispy Chilli Oil, to serve (optional)

Steps
  • Step 1

    Place the fish pieces in a bowl and add the SEASONED FLOUR from the kit. Gently toss until the fish is evenly coated.

  • Step 2

    Heat about 2-3 cm of vegetable oil in a wok or deep frying pan over medium-high heat. Fry the fish in batches for 2-3 minutes or until lightly golden and just cooked through. Remove carefully and drain on a paper towel.

  • Step 3

    Carefully pour off most of the oil from the wok, leaving about 1 tablespoon behind.

  • Step 4

    Return the wok to medium heat. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

  • Step 5

    Add the SICHUAN PEPPER & CHILLIES from the kit and stir-fry briefly to release the aroma.

  • Step 6

    Pour in the SICHUAN STIR-FRY SAUCE and bring to a gentle simmer.

  • Step 7

    Add the fried fish back into the wok and gently toss to coat, being careful not to break the pieces.

  • Step 8

    Stir through the spring onions and cook for another minute until everything is heated through.

  • Step 9

    Serve immediately with steamed rice and finish with a drizzle of Marion’s Kitchen Crispy Chilli Oil if you like an extra kick.
