Pavé de poisson à la sauce Amazu-an

Fish steak with Amazu-an sauce

In Asian countries, many dishes are cooked with sweet and sour sauce. In Japan, this sauce is called Amazu-an.
Here I share with you a recipe adapted for the French.
The ingredients are easy to find and the recipe is simple to prepare.

In a pan, pour 1 tbsp. soup of oil then cook them.

Add all the ingredients for the Amazu sauce. Leave to cook for 2 minutes.

In a small container, mix the potato starch and water well with a spoon to obtain a smooth, opaque liquid, then pour into the pan.

Stirring regularly, cook until the sauce becomes transparent.

For the fish steaks

In stove heated, pour 1 tbsp. soup of oil, place the fish fillets, skin side down, then cook for about 5 minutes (depending on the thickness of the fillet) over medium heat.

Carefully flip and cook for another 3 minutes on the other side.
