What? Fish again? Well, I had two pomfrets hibernating in the freezer. One became Ikan Goreng Sambal Lebur while its companion was turned into Sweet and Sour Fish.
It's one of my favorites at any Chinese restaurant be it a whole fish or fish fillets. And since I am quite adept at frying fish these days, I had no qualms frying another one.
The red, green and yellow peppers were leftovers from the Sweet and Sour Meatballs and I bought a pineapple to add on to the ingredients.
I am happy that my Sweet and Sour Pomfret turned out well, just a nice as the one at the restaurant, not that I am blowing my own trumpet hee..hee...
