Description

Szechwan Fish is a sizzling, spicy fish dish rooted in the bold flavors of Indo-Chinese cuisine. Tender fish fillets are marinated, lightly coated, and shallow or deep-fried to golden perfection. They’re then stir-fried with aromatic garlic, ginger, onions, chilies, and a generous amount of fiery Szechwan sauce.

This sauce — a blend of red chilies, garlic, soy sauce, and vinegar — gives the dish its characteristic deep red hue and intense flavor. Crisp bell peppers and spring onions are often added for color, crunch, and freshness.

Served as a starter (dry version) or with a little sauce (semi-gravy), Szechwan Fish pairs well with fried rice or noodles. It’s an excellent alternative to the usual chicken-based Indo-Chinese dishes, perfect for seafood lovers who enjoy heat and zest.
