Ingredients

Instructions

1. 1

   Pat the flounder fillets dry with paper towels. Season lightly with white pepper and then dredge lightly in cornstarch, shaking off any excess.

2. 2

   Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sugar, and water. Set aside.

3. 3

   Heat vegetable oil in a non-stick pan over medium-high heat. Carefully place the flounder fillets in the hot oil.

4. 4

   Pan-fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Remove the fish from the pan and set aside on a serving plate.

5. 5

   In the same pan (drain excess oil if necessary), add minced garlic and shredded ginger. Sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

6. 6

   Pour in the prepared sauce mixture. Bring to a simmer until it slightly thickens. Remove from heat.

7. 7

   Drizzle the garlic soy sauce over the pan-fried flounder fillets. Garnish with chopped spring onions. Serve immediately with hot steamed rice.
