Ginseng Soy Dory Fillet/Honey Chipotle Dory Fillet with Carbonara Agnoletti

Being an offer grabber, I tend to overly purchase groceries when particular food items on big discount. Therefore, my fridge have the tendency to bulge with all kinds of sauces and meats. As Chinese New Year is closing, it is the time of the month to clear all the leftover food remnant. Having remaining dory fillet and carbonara sauce leftover from previous culinary adventure. I decide to create 2 new fish dishes to clear the leftover - Ginseng Soy Dory Fillet & Honey Chipotle Dory Fillet.



Ginseng Soy Dory Fillet (Pan Fried)

  1. Dory Fillet or Sutchi Fillet (Easily found in supermart cost about $3.90 per pack)
  2. Light Soya Sauce
  3. Ginseng Powder (Easily found in TCM shop)
  4. Ground Black Pepper
  5. Corn Starch
Most of the sutchi fillet sold in super market comes in a pack of 3 IQF. So when you need to defrost them completely before you marinate it in order for the marinate to seep in. For 1 piece of sutchi fillet, use 1 to 2 tablespoon of light soya together with 1 teaspoon of ginseng powder rub down on both side of the sutchi fillet u can sprinkle 1 teaspoon of corn starch and rub in so that they can congeal the marinate to the sutchi fillet. Grind some black pepper to both side of the fillet and leave it to marinate for an hour at least.

Fire up the stove with a table spoon of oil in the frying pan, once the pan is hot enough place the sutchi fillet into and sear for 2 mins before flipping to the other side to sear for another 2 mins. After that, ginseng soy dory fillet is ready to serve.

Chipotle Honey Dory Fillet (Pan Fried)

  1. Dory Fillet or Sutchi Fillet (Easily found in supermart cost about $3.90 per pack)
  2. Chipotle Chili Paste (Sold $12.90 in Belmonte Latin Food)
  3. Honey
This is the most easy of all the fish dish. As the chipotle chili paste is very spicy. I only use 1 teaspoon of chipotle chili paste to mix it with 1 tablespoon of honey after that apply it evenly to both side of dory fillet. Ensure it is marinate thoroughly for an hour at least before you pan fry it both side for 2 mins before serving.

Carbonara Agnoletti

  1. Agnoletti
  2. Leggo Carbonara Sauce
  3. Stock
Agnoletti is a kind of stuff pasta that you can easily find in Cold Storage or Carrefour. This Agnoletti is stuff with spinach and ricotta cheese. You need to cook it in boiling water for about 5 to 8 mins till it soften. Next, you need to drain and set it aside. Next will be the Carbonara Sauce, heat up the frying pan and scoop 2 tablespoons of carbonara sauce to the frying pan as the sauce is rather thick you can add in 2 scoops of stock to dilute it. As it boils, put in the cooked agnoletti and let it cook till the sauce thicken then it is ready to serve.
