Minichan

4 - 6 small whole Koi (about 200gm each)
3/4 cup of oil for frying
3 cloves of garlic
1 and 1/2 tablespoons of hot chilli bean sauce (supermarkets have it)
1 spring onion

Seasoning sauce

3/4 cup water or fish stock
1 tablespoon brown vinegar
1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
1 pickled red chilli (chopped)
2 - 3 slices fresh ginger - (chopped)
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 and 1/2 teaspoons cornflour


Method

Clean the Koi and rinse in cold water and dry thoroughly. Heat a wok with half the oil to smoking point and fry half the fish until lightly browned on both sides. Repeat with the other half of oil and fish and keep warm on a plate.

Pour out any residue oil, rinse the wok, then return about 2 tablespoons of the oil. Stir-fry the garlic briefly, then add the bean sauce and stir-fry for about 40 seconds. Add the pre-mixed seasoning sauce ingredients and bring to the boil, stirring constantly.

Slide the Koi into the sauce, reduce heat, cover and simmer gently for about 20 minutes. Splash a little more water from time to time if it begins to dry up during cooking.

You need someone to look out for the long arm of the law.

Use a wide spatula to transfer the fish onto a serving plate, stacking them together in the same direction. Scatter the spring onion over the fish and pour on the sauce. Serve immediately.

Thanks, Google! ?

I think the same can be said about most of the animal kingdom. What’s your point?

Honestly if humans will eat themselves to death if given too much food they don't deserve to live

I think most animals stop before their stomach ruptures. I know I do.
