Directions
Caramelized Black-Pepper Fish,This is a Vietnamese recipe from the website panningtheglobe.com. The last 2 ingredients are for the garnish.,Made this with fresh frozen mackerel and my own homemade caramel sauce plus fish sauce, ginger, etc. This is wonderful for fatty fish i.e. sardines, salmon. The sauce flavors the fish so well. This is going into my international seafood category along with the Bok Choy recipe and white rice. Really good.
