Soy and honey glazed basa with stir fried veggies

A hardcore pescatarian, I had been trying the basa in different forms at city restaurants..however cooking the fish seemed like a daunting task.
After all it was not like the homegrown Bombay duck or the ever dependable pomfret. I however, decided to give a shot at trying something novel and frankly the final outcome was lipsmackingly delicious, even if I say so myself.
Hope you like it too!

Steps
- 1
Marinate the basa fillet with the juice of one lemon, one teaspoon butter, freshly ground black pepper and some salt. Let the marinade sit for 5-10 minutes.
- 2
In a bowl, mix the soy sauce, one teaspoon white vinegar, two spoons honey, garlic paste, sesame seeds, finely chopped parsley and salt to taste. Whisk well
- 3
In a saucepan add 1 teaspoon olive oil. Once the oil has heated up, place the marinated fish fillet and let it cook, turning the fillet occasionally so that the fish gets evenly cooked on both sides. Be careful while turning the fillet, since the same may break once fully cooked.
- 4
Once the fish is near ready, pour the honey soy mixture over it so that the fillet is fully coated with the sauce. Once the fish acquires a glaze, switch off the gas. Let some sauce remain in the pan so that the fish remains moist.
- 5
Chop the vegetables into cubes. Finely chop the garlic.
- 6
In a saucepan add one teaspoon of olive oil and add the finely chopped garlic.
- 7
Once the garlic gets a little burnt, add the remaining vegetables and saute it on a high flame. We need the veggies to retain their crunch, hence do not overcook them
- 8
Add salt to taste and 1 teaspoon vinegar
- 9
Remove from pan and allow it to cool
- 10
On a plate, place a salad leaf and arrange the fish fillet on it. Pour the remaining sauce on the fillet.
- 11
Serve with the sauted veggies
