Fish with Black Bean Sauce Stirfry

Fish with Black Bean Sauce Stirfry
Fish with Black Bean Sauce Stirfry is one of my favorite fish stirfry dish. There are countless variations of this fish stirfry dish which depends on available ingredients. In fact I have on the archives a similar fish stirfry dish Fish and Tofu with Tausi, as the name suggest I used fermented black beans instead of black bean sauce, I also added some fried tofu as an extender and for added variety. You may use any white fish fillet, for best result use a firm fish fillet. Cooking is a bit complicated because it involves combinations of cooking process. Firstly the fish pieces coated with cornstarch are deep fried or at least fried so the cornstarch will seal in the juices of the fish. The vegetables are also stir cook separately for best results. Here is the recipe of another version of my Fish with Black Bean Sauce Stirfry.
