Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Curry Orange Swai Fillets.
Step 1
Start by placing your swai fish fillets in a glass dish, then sprinkle both sides generously with ground black pepper and aromatic curry powder.
Step 2
Drizzle soy sauce over the fish, making sure each fillet is well-coated.
Step 3
Let the fish marinate for at least 20 minutes to soak up all those delicious flavors.
Step 4
While the fish is marinating, heat some olive oil in a saucepan over medium-high heat.
Step 5
Once the oil is shimmering, gently add the marinated fish fillets to the pan.
Step 6
Sear them for about 3 minutes on each side until they develop a lovely golden-brown crust.
Step 7
Next, introduce grated ginger and crushed garlic to the pan, stirring them in for about a minute until their enticing aromas fill the air.
Step 8
Be sure to stir frequently to prevent any burning.
Step 9
Now, lower the heat to medium-low and pour in any leftover marinade along with fresh orange juice.
Step 10
Let everything simmer together until the fish flakes easily with a fork, which should take around 10 minutes.
Step 11
Once the fish is perfectly cooked, carefully remove it from the pan and set it aside.
Step 12
In the same pan, stir in sambal oelek, allowing the sauce to reduce and thicken for about 5 minutes.
Step 13
Finally, pour this vibrant sauce over the fish and get ready to serve a dish thatβs bursting with flavor and warmth.
Step 14
Enjoy your culinary creation!.
