This mushroom sauce is good with Fish, but also good with Tofu or Chicken. Cook those proteins simply with Salt and Pepper, or you don’t need to cook Tofu. Today I pan-fried the Fish Fillets after coating them with Flour. You can steam, grill or deep-fry. This sauce makes the simple fish into an extra special dish.

Steps

1

Season Fish Fillets with Salt & White Pepper, and set aside.
2

Cut Mushrooms into small pieces and slices. Place all the ingredients, except for Potato Starch, in a small saucepan, and bring to the boil. When Mushrooms are cooked, mix Potato Starch and Water very well, and add to the sauce. Sir until the sauce thickens.
3

Cook Fish Fillets in your favourite way. Today I coated them with Flour and pan-fried with a small amount of Oil.
