Pan-Fried Sutchi with Kiwi Sauce

Hello everyone! This new blogspace stores and records all my tried and tested tasty recipes which I would like to share with you.

Most people love to cook with freshest available ingredients but find it near impossible to visit supermarket everyday, that's when frozen items come to rescue. He he.

I bought a bag of frozen Sutchi (Pangasius Hypophthalmus) fillets from NTUC (freezer section) recently and used its suggested recipe to make a meal. The fish tasted fresh and firm and with my slightly modified kiwi sauce, I found it rather enjoyable.

This takes no time to cook so I find it suitable for weeknights. And so I decide to post this recipe on this blog for you. Try it, you may be pleasantly surprised. :)
