Directions
I found this recipe in our local Jewish Times and fixed it for dinner tonight. My husband loved it . The recipe calls for Fish Sauce. The bottle I have is not Kosher but the main ingredient is anchovies. A touch of anchovy paste or even 1 chopped anchovy would be a good substitute. I don't think the recipe would suffer if totally left out! Spray non-stick pan with vegetable spray. Saute fish fillets until cooked and browned about 3 minutes each side. Remove fish from pan and keep warm.
Add green onions and 1 TBS water to the pan and simmer until soft. Add garlic, ginger and 2 TBS water and cook for 2 more minutes.
Add soy sauce, sugar or rice wine , lemon juice, fish sauce and chili (and pepper) and simmer for 1 minute. Spoon sauce over fish and serve.
